1. Automated Metal Sorting in Recycling Lines
In industrial recycling facilities, metal detection must be fast and accurate to separate materials efficiently. The IME30-10BNSZW2S sensor provides rapid detection of metallic objects as they travel along conveyor belts. Its 10 mm sensing range and high 500 Hz switching frequency allow it to identify even small components with precision. The flush-mount design and nickel-plated housing ensure stable performance in dusty and vibration-heavy environments. This improves sorting accuracy, minimizes manual inspection, and helps achieve higher throughput in automated recycling systems.
2. Sheet-Metal Positioning in Stamping Operations
In metal stamping presses, a misplaced sheet can cause significant damage or downtime. The IME30-10BNSZW2S is mounted flush within the die structure to confirm proper sheet placement before each press cycle. Its fast response time ensures instant feedback, while the IP67 protection guards against lubricants and debris. The sensor’s ability to resist shock and vibration ensures consistent accuracy during repetitive operations, protecting expensive tooling and reducing unplanned maintenance.
3. Robotic Arm Detection in Automotive Assembly
Robotic arms in vehicle assembly require precise confirmation that a metal part is correctly positioned before welding or fastening. The IME30-10BNSZW2S delivers reliable feedback by detecting metal components without physical contact. Its rugged brass body withstands harsh factory conditions such as heat and oil exposure. The sensor’s non-contact operation eliminates wear and ensures consistent part alignment, improving overall assembly precision and reducing reject rates in automated production lines.
4. Metal Insert Verification in Packaging Lines
During high-speed packaging, containers often include metallic elements like caps, clips, or foil seals. The IME30-10BNSZW2S ensures each unit is properly fitted by detecting these metal inserts even at rapid conveyor speeds. Its inductive sensing technology is unaffected by moisture or plastic packaging materials, guaranteeing accuracy in wet or washdown conditions. This feature supports quality assurance by preventing packaging errors and maintaining consistent product standards across long production runs.
