    A new catalog features DieGuard sensors for feed, slug, stripper-plate, and part-out detection applications.

    A new catalog features DieGuard sensors for feed, slug, stripper-plate, and part-out detection applications. The sensors prevent double hits and die crashes. Some models come with 3-mm-diameter cable for making tight bends in wire troughs and fixtures.

    Other products include analog sensors 4 to 30 mm in diameter and flat-pack sensors. Special analog ring sensors and discrete ring sensors with a 100-mm diameter work for larger part-out detection. All DieGuard sensors use PUR cable for improved oil and coolant resistance in die applications.
