Inductive proximity sensors

Inductive sensors play an essential role in many industrial and technological applications. Whether you are in the automotive industry, manufacturing or sectors requiring precise object detection, these sensors offer a reliable solution.

What is an inductive sensor?


Definition and basic concept

An inductive sensor is a device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to detect objects without physical contact. Unlike optical or mechanical sensors, inductive sensors do not rely on light or touch, but rather on magnetic fields generated by electrical currents. This feature makes them particularly robust and durable, ideal for harsh environments where dust, dirt or water would be problematic for other types of sensors.

Common applications

These sensors are often used in situations where it is necessary to detect the presence or absence of a metallic object, measure distance accurately, and perform continuous monitoring tasks. For example, in the automotive industry they can be used to check the alignment of metal parts. In manufacturing, they help supervise production equipment to ensure that all parts are in the right place at the right time. RVDT (Rotary Variable Differential Transformer) sensors and resolvers are specific examples of inductive sensors specialized in angular measurement.

How does an inductive sensor work?


Principle of operation

The operation of an inductive sensor is based on the creation of an electromagnetic field around a coil located in the sensor. When a metallic object enters this field, eddy currents are induced on the surface of this object. These currents create their own magnetic field, which interacts with that emitted by the sensor. This change is detected by the sensor's internal electronics, transforming this interaction into an electrical signal that can be used to indicate the presence or absence of the object.

Key components

A typical inductive sensor includes several essential components: a copper coil, an oscillator, an amplifier, a comparator, and an output circuit. The coil generates the electromagnetic field, while the oscillator stabilizes and regulates this field. The amp directs the received signal to processing electronics such as a comparator, which analyzes variations in the field and triggers the corresponding output. Choosing a supplier like Kheeos ensures that each component will be of high quality, ensuring longevity and reliability.

Types of inductive sensors

There are various types of inductive sensors, each designed to meet different operational requirements. For example, cylindrical and rectangular sensors vary in their physical dimensions and detection range. Some are designed for detection at very short distances while others allow measurement from further away. Sensors specifically designed for angular measurement such as RVDTs and resolvers have internal mechanisms allowing great precision in capturing even minimal rotations.
