In automated robotic gripper systems, precise detection of both open and closed positions is vital for accurate part handling. The MZ2Q-FTZPS-KR0 allows this by providing two switching points within a single compact sensor, eliminating the need for separate units. Mounted directly in the T-slot of the pneumatic cylinder, it ensures reliable position feedback even in fast-moving operations. The dual PNP outputs streamline wiring, reduce installation space, and improve machine efficiency while maintaining high accuracy under constant motion.
In production environments where pneumatic clamps hold workpieces during machining or welding, confirming both clamped and released states is critical. The MZ2Q-FTZPS-KR0 solves this by enabling two teachable switch points—one for each cylinder position. This ensures processes only start when the clamp is securely engaged, reducing risk of misalignment or damaged parts. Its IP67 protection and vibration resistance make it dependable even in harsh industrial settings, improving reliability and reducing system downtime.
In conveyor systems or automated loading mechanisms, detecting full extension and retraction of a loading plate ensures synchronized operation with other equipment. The MZ2Q-FTZPS-KR0 compact design fits easily into tight spaces, and its teach-in function allows quick adjustment of position limits. Visual LED indicators confirm sensor operation during setup, reducing commissioning time. This results in more stable, precise control of movement for packaging and assembly lines with frequent changeovers.
In material-transfer carriages or linear slides, monitoring both travel limits and mid-positions enhances motion control. The MZ2Q-FTZPS-KR0 simplifies this by combining two detection points into one sensor, minimizing wiring and saving mounting space. Its excellent reproducibility ensures consistent response even under continuous vibration or oil exposure. By providing reliable multi-point sensing, it supports high-speed sorting, assembly, and logistics operations where precision and uptime are essential.
