Monitoring of a clamping cylinder at the press-in station

A clamping cylinder can be used to clamp component A at the press-in station to ensure that the component is positioned correctly. Two MZT8 VIA magnetic cylinder sensors monitor the two end positions of the pneumatic clamping cylinder. The VIA variants have two LEDs. The yellow LED serves as an optical adjustment indicator and makes it easier to install the sensor and monitor its mounting position. The green LED indicates whether the sensor is in operation.
