For many tasks in automation technology, it is necessary to detect the movement processes and positions of pneumatic cylinders accurately.

SICK magnetic cylinder sensors are fully electronic and are encapsulated in special housings which can be attached simply to the pneumatic cylinders. Since they have no switching contacts or moving parts, the sensors are extremely reliable, even in applications involving severe vibration and shock stress.

They are characterized by high sensitivity and switching accuracy, in addition to practical mounting technology for all current pneumatic cylinders.
