Tech Specs

The SICK MPS-T Series Cylinder Sensor are designed for continuous detection of the piston position of pneumatic actuators via a direct, non-contact method. The sensors can be mounted in T-slots without the need for additional accessories. The MPS-T Series' settings can be adjusted during installation and during operation later on, via teach pad or IO-Link (depending on variant). The sensors continuously supply data via analog outputs or IO-Link, permitting flexible machine concepts, making it possible to solve tasks in areas such as quality monitoring and process control in conjunction with pneumatic cylinders and drives. This continuous transfer of position data upgrades the functionality of the pneumatic cylinders through intelligent technology and overall increase versatility.
