You no doubt have encountered picky inductive sensor behavior - where a sensor had to be placed in a way that the target covered the entire face (in a parallel orientation) in order to achieve reliable target detection. In many fixturing situations this behavior makes for a sensor placement nightmare!
Weld Dynamix sensors give you Sensor Placement Flexibility, with "KNIFE-EDGE" sensing technology - which means they don't need to be completely covered, or need the target parallel to the sensing face. Flexibility means angles, curves, partial coverage, or even thin edges are reliably detected.
This is what we mean by Sensor Placement Flexibility!
