Monitoring of clamping cylinders
For the assembly of male connectors, workpiece carriers must be positioned in the joining station. This task is performed by pneumatic clamping cylinders. The MZ2Q magnetic cylinder sensor detects the position of these clamping cylinders. Thanks to its two switching points, a single cylinder sensor is all that is needed to determine the front and rear end positions of the cylinders. This advantage means that the sensor is also well suited for extremely small clamping cylinders with minimal available space.
