TURCK’s new W20 ring sensors, with diameters ranging from 6 to 50 mm, provide process and diagnostic data for feeding and counting tasks as well as predictive maintenance
Inductive Ring Sensors with IO-Link
TURCK’s flexibly configurable W20 ring sensors provide process and diagnostic data for feeding and counting tasks
Greater flexibility simplifies inventory management and project planning
A key feature of the sensors—which are available in eight ring diameters ranging from 6 to 50 mm—is their flexible configurability: sensitivity, switching logic, output type, and static or dynamic operating mode can be set via both IO-Link and a teach adapter. In addition to process data, the devices provide comprehensive diagnostic information—such as operating hours, switching cycles, and temperatures—that supports condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.
Typical applications include feeding systems for automatic screwdriving machines, part counting and sorting in conveyor systems, as well as wire breakage and jam detection. In dynamic mode, the ring sensors detect even very small and fast-moving parts with an adjustable pulse length and high repeatability.
