Position transmitter and programmable proximity sensor SDAS-MHS


IO-Link® position transmitter or proximity sensor? Both!

The SDAS-MHS serves simultaneously as an IO-Link® position transmitter in proximity sensor size and as a proximity sensor with two programmable switching points. With this dual function, the SDAS-MHS solves space problems for tricky application requirements.

​​​​​​​In proximity sensor operating mode you can teach in two switching points. Small cylinders and grippers can be more compactly designed because they don’t need any space for a second proximity sensor. You can set up the sensor quickly and reliably using the Teach button. And the possibility to program PNP/NPN directly in the device reduces complexity.
  • IO-Link®
  • Two programmable switching points
  • PNP/NPN programmable
  • Continuous position feedback on the piston movement

Festo Simplified Motion
Simplified Motion Series consists of different electromechanical components together with a simple and application-optimised combination of motor and servo drives, the so-called integrated drive. This solution does not require an external servo drive. The electric alternative for very simple movement and positioning tasks does not require the usual commissioning process that is needed for traditional electric drive systems, which can often be quite complex.

Festo DGST
Small but strong: the DGST is the smallest of its kind and the shortest slide drive on the market. However, it is strong when it comes to precision, forces, motion control, durability and reliability. For maximum torsional rigidity, the yoke and slide are a single part and the sensors and cushioning are fully integrated.

Schneider Electric XIOT
The Internet of Things is the extension of the Internet to connected devices. Telemecanique Sensors offers a wireless solution to collect data from remote equipment and use this data, via the Internet, on a PC or mobile device. The XIOT Cloud connected switch from Telemecanique Sensors is based on LPWAN \(low power wide area network\) technology, operated by Sigfox. The Sigfox network covers 32 countries and is already very extensive in Europe. It is also being rapidly deployed in the US and Asia-Pacific. It uses antennas with a range of around 50 km. The map on the Sigfox website shows exactly which areas are covered by the Network.

    Avebe - A Good Night’s Sleep Thanks to FactoryScan
    Companies often have no clear idea of the installed base of industrial automation in their factories and warehouses. With FactoryScan, itsme can provide an overview of the current status of automation components such as PLCs. Potato processor Royal Avebe uses the results to update their component stock and assess future availability. The scan is intended to reduce the number of hardware-related disruptions Process Control Engineer Johan Wierenga has to deal with. It also helps him sleep better, knowing the stock is up to date.
