SMC's high-quality industrial sensors
Our catalogue offers a wide range of SMC industrial sensors. Learn more about their uses and technical details.
Flow switches
Gain valuable insights into the applications and technical specifications of SMC industrial sensors.
Fluid and gas flow sensors are essential for many applications, such as:
- Equipment flow control
- Main/branch line flow
- Gas filling
- Nitrogen flow
- Air leak detection
- Thermo-chiller fluid rate control
- Flow control for pressurised cooling water for welding guns
- Flow control for water-soluble coolant
- Flow control for cooling water for metal mould
Your industrial applications may also benefit from these products for other purposes.
Air Compressor Pressure Switches & Sensors
Digital pressure sensors and vacuum sensors precisely track the pressure within applications, minimising the risk of incorrect switching actions.
Pressure sensors can be customised to produce different types of output signals, including digital, analogue, IO-Link, and others. This adaptability aids in pinpointing potential causes of malfunctions and reducing machine downtime.
SMC provides digital vacuum and pressure sensors designed to measure positive, negative, or combined pressures. This versatility makes them adaptable to various industrial sectors:
- Validating absorption
- Regulating liquid coolant pressure
- Verifying workpiece positioning
- Testing leak
- Checking supply pressure
- Monitoring for filter clogging
Auto switches
Automated switches are specifically designed to work with pneumatic actuators and/or electric actuators and finger grippers. They use magnets within their piston rods to precisely determine their position.
The position is determined by the cylinder or gripper walls. As they operate without physical contact auto switches are resistant to wear, guaranteeing reliable performance.
Auto switches are widely used in many applications, such as:
- Pick and place machines
- Length/width sorting
- Machine-made holes checking
- Size measurement
- Verification of product positioning
