SY301 · Principles of Industrial Sensors

Experimental Apparatus for the Study of Industrial Sensors

A portable training kit that compares eight industrial position and proximity sensors - optical, inductive, capacitive, electromechanical and magnetic - against five target materials, with precise switching-distance measurement on a scaled base plate.
SY301
Description
    The training system is a hands-on comparison rig for the position and proximity sensors used throughout industrial automation. A base plate with a printed measurement scale carries adjustable holders for eight sensors covering the key sensing principles: optical - including a fibre-optic light guide - inductive, capacitive, electromechanical and magnetic. A movable carriage holds one of five interchangeable target plates of different materials and finishes - black aluminium, matt-black and silver steel, transparent plexiglass, and white plastic - so students see directly how material, colour, surface texture and transparency determine which sensing principle responds.
