Contact-Type Smart Sensor
last update: September 1, 2023
A ball spline mechanism is used to hold the balls in grooves (on the right in the following diagram). This helps prevent the balls from damaging internal parts due to vibration or shock to reduce the chance of malfunction. In comparison with the previous method (on the left in the following diagram), load capacity is increased and an exceptionally smooth sliding operation is achieved for long-term stable operation.
IP67 protection is combined with a magnetic sensing method. Even in the unlikely event that water, oil, or condensation enters the sensing section, this sensor is not affected by problems such as light scattering, which can occur with optical sensors. You therefore get stable detection even in harsh environments.
* 1. For the right-angle type, this applies only when a hose elbow and air hose are connected.
* 3 .Robot cable specifications apply to the Sensor Head cable and the Connection Cable between the Preamplifier and the Amplifier Unit.
Measuring Dimensions of Electronic Components
* E9NC-TH5S (on the left) and E9NC-TH5L (on the right)
* For the above connection example.
With a standard type with an analog output, accuracy is reduced when the data is sent.
With the communications type, however, the high-precision data measured at a resolution of 0.1 μm is transmitted as digital data without loosing any precision or accuracy.
You can quickly and easily connect E9NC-TA0 Units to the E3NW-ECT Sensor Communications Unit. You can easily achieve simultaneous measurements or measurements for multiple processes. You can reduce wiring work in comparison with the analog output type.
* 1. When using EtherCAT with an OMRON NJ-series Controller.
With CC-Link, you can connect up to 16 Sensors.
Just add function blocks to the host controller to easily perform various calculations.
* 2. Function blocks are available for Mitsubishi Q-series and L-series Controllers.
