Encoders & Position Sensors SMC

SMC offers a variety of auto switches for actuators and air grippers. Reed and solid state switches are available in a general purpose type or with 2-color indication, which allows the optimum operating position to be determined by the color of the light. Solid state switches are also available in 2-color indication with diagnostic output, water resistant 2-color indication, built-in OFF-delay timer (200 ms), magnetic field resistant, heat resistant and wide range detection configurations. Various lead wire lengths are available.

The Auto Switch, Actuator Position Sensor w/IO-Link, D-MP100B offers precise actuator stroke position output with an analog signal. This sensor is designed for high accuracy with a repeatability of 0.1 mm, making it ideal for applications requiring precise position detection. The sensor supports both voltage (0 to 10 V) and current (4 to 20 mA) analog outputs, which can be reversed for flexible integration.Featuring IO-Link compatibility, the D-MP100B allows for seamless digital communication, enabling periodic transmission of ON/OFF signals and position measurement values using a single communication line. The sensor includes four measurement ranges and modes, providing versatility for various applications. The switch output can be configured for PNP/NPN outputs, and ON/OFF positions can be set easily.The D-MP100B is equipped with an intuitive teach pad for simple setting adjustments and an operation display with indicator lights to show the current mode and status. The sensor is designed for direct mounting into the auto switch mounting groove on the cylinder, ensuring easy installation and integration.With IP67 protection, the D-MP100B is suitable for use in harsh environments, providing reliable performance and durability. This sensor is ideal for use in automation systems, manufacturing lines, and other industrial applications where precise position sensing is critical.

Series CEU5, multi counter was developed to work with CEP1 or CE1 high precision, stroke reading cylinders. CEU5 utilizes a RS-232C communication system which allows multiple counters to be linked together (each counter has a unique address, 1-99. BCD output, which allows the counter to be connected to a panel display, is available as a standard option.
