The IMF inductive proximity sensor is the new standard for reliability in the food industry. With its extended sensing ranges, made highly precise thanks to the use of SICK ASIC technology, the IMF ensures reliable, stable processes. What's more, its wide-ranging specification limits allow the IMF to be used in all areas of food production: a huge benefit when it comes to product selection and warehousing. The optical adjustment indicator saves time during commissioning and helps cut down on errors. Communication via IO-Link is also possible, creating more flexibility and adding more functions for automation applications. With an extensive standard product portfolio available, even special devices can be put into action quickly and easily.
