We specialize in ferrous metal proximity sensors, magnetic tape tracking sensors, and custom-designed magnetic sensor solutions.

Our sensors are engineered for harsh industrial environments and can be tailored for high-temperature, high-vibration, or wet conditions. Customers have used our sensors in highly acidic environments, thousands of feet below the ocean, and other difficult environments.

Our standard ferrous metal proximity sensors detect only ferrous metals - but can do so through non-ferrous metals. A gap through non-ferrous metal gives the same indication as through an air gap of the same distance. However, the sensors can be used to determine the magnetic permeability - a main indicator of a metal's quality - of metals, and ensure that there is no other metal contaminates.

For non-ferrous applications, we offer custom solutions or alternative sensing technologies.

Ferrous metal proximity sensors are commonly used in industrial environments where reliable detection of steel or iron components is critical. Typical applications include assembly verification, where sensors confirm the presence or position of metallic parts on production lines; metal permeability testing, where sensors assess material consistency or integrity; and robotics control systems, where precise metal detection enables automation tasks such as alignment, positioning, or end-of-arm tool verification. Their non-contact operation and durability make them ideal for harsh conditions in manufacturing, automotive, packaging, and automation industries.

Accuracy depends on application specifics, but our standard tape tracking sensors typically offer sub-millimeter resolution and high repeatability.

Most of our sensors are factory-calibrated and ready to use. Some custom or advanced systems may require field calibration, which can be easily completed by the customer if necessary.
