SICK Cylinder sensors MPS-G

MPS-G position sensors continuously detect the position of the fingers of a pneumatic gripper and the piston position in miniature cylinders using a non-contact method. The compactly built magnetic distance measuring system determines these positions with micrometer precision. The sensor can be easily inserted into C-slots or, with the help of an adapter, into T-slots and is simple to fasten to a drive. The MPS-G is available in two product variants: as a sensor with an analog voltage output and as an IO-Link sensor with a Smart Sensor profile and three configurable digital outputs. SICK is thereby able to offer suitable solutions for numerous application requirements. The MPS-G also delivers comprehensive diagnostic data via IO-Link, including performance data for pneumatic drives or data for condition monitoring of systems.
