Sensing solutions for machine tools – Precision in every process step

Machine tools are the backbone of modern manufacturing. They must work precisely, reliably and efficiently – even under harsh conditions. That is exactly where our sensing solutions come in by providing support for the intelligent monitoring and control of central subsystems, such as hydraulics, lubrication, cooling lubricant filtration and chip conveyors.

As a specialist in sensors for pressure, temperature, flow, level and force measurement, we also offer modular, IO-Link-capable measurement technology that can be used in all relevant functional areas:

Typical applications in machine tools:

• Hydraulic systems
  Monitoring of system pressure, return pressure as well as oil temperature and level – for energy-efficient and trouble-free operation.
• Lubrication systems
  Precise level and flow monitoring ensures the service life of spindles, bearings and guides.
• Cooling lubricant filtration systems
  Pressure and level sensors ensure a consistent coolant supply – essential for the machining quality.
• Chip conveyors and cleaning units
  Sensing technology for monitoring levels, pump pressure and pump capacity increases process safety and automation capability.

Your benefits:

• Robust industrial series – suitable for continuous operation in oily, humid and dirty environments
• IO-Link-capable – for simple parameterisation, diagnostics and integration into digital control concepts
• Compact designs – allowing optimal integration into confined machine rooms
• Reliability and precision – even with changing media and temperatures

With our many years of experience in the machine building industry and a broad product portfolio, we offer sensing solutions that not only deliver data, but also create real added value for your machine processes – reliable, smart and future-proof.
