Reliable detection for iron and aluminum with new OMRON E2EW Series metal face proximity sensors

Non-ferrous metals like aluminum are useful when weight lightening is needed, but they can make part detection more difficult relative to iron. Proximity sensors may be limited in their ability to detect non-ferrous metals and can be damaged as a result. OMRON’s E2EW Series metal face proximity sensors improve part detection and promote uptime by providing enhanced sensing distances and incorporating Factor 1 sensing.
