Inductive sensors

Balluff Sensors

Balluff inductive sensors detect metallic objects without contact. They operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction, generating an oscillating field that changes when metal enters it. These sensors are commonly used for position detection and counting tasks in automated machinery.

About sensors

Inductive sensors is listed under Sensors — proximity, photoelectric, ultrasonic, hall and limit sensors. Sensors in this category detect the presence or absence of objects without physical contact, or by contact in the case of limit switches. Proximity sensors, including inductive and capacitive types, respond to metallic and non-metallic objects respectively, typically within short ranges (1-50mm).
