Vibration Sensors for
Process Monitoring

Process monitoring becomes more and
more important in the eld of automation.
Permanent process monitoring recognizes
and localizes malfunctions in the automation process early, thus preventing expensive repair, maintenance and downtime.
These new, innovative ACE vibration
sensors support the eld of pick and place
technology and automation, e.g., in linear
modules, rotary actuators and grippers.
The sensors are positively connected with
the device (e. g., C-slot)
and permanently monitor
the vibration level during
the work process. If an increase of vibrations caused by an overload, varying drive
power and decreasing damping performance above the preset nominal value is
detected, the sensor changes its switching status to open or closed, depending
on the design. The process is interrupted
via the connection to the monitoring system. Expensive repair and maintenance
costs can thereby be avoided.
The new ACE sensors are available in
versions PNP, NPN and analogue.
