The increasing miniaturization of assemblies demands the smallest possible yet still high-performance components. The new lines of miniature sensors from Balluff (Florence, KY) meet these requirements. With small dimensions and top performance, they offer a great degree of freedom in design and make possible considerably more applications. Miniature sensors are available from Balluff in all operating principles: as inductive, photoelectric, magnetic, capacitive, and ultrasonic. Available for each sensor technology are compact inductive couplers, space-saving I/O modules and RFID in miniature versions. Features include:

• Mini sensors and compact connection technology ideally suited for factory automation.
• Reduced space requirement increases flexibility in a tightly packed machine compartment.
• The shortest inductive M12 sensor in the world – with a length of 12 or 17 mm.
