JSENSING TARGETS AND POSITION

CONTROL

TL-G3D-3 Grooved Model

If the TL-G3D-3 is in high-speed response operation with a

toothed metal plate, be sure that the target object size is as large

as or larger than the standard object size and that the target

objects are separated enough from one another.

The response frequency obtainable when the following toothed

metal plate is used will be 1 kHz or higher. If the metal plate is

smaller with shorter teeth and narrow adjacent space, the

response frequency will decrease.

15 min.

10 min.

Material: Iron

t=0.5 mm

Be sure that the distance between the bottom of the groove and

the sensing object is 1 mm or less.

Sensingobject

1mmmax.

TL-Q Rectangular Model

The sensing distance decreases with non-ferrous metal. Refer to

Target Object Size and Material vs. Sensing Distance (Typical) in

Engineering Data. If the target is a metal foil that is as thin or

thinner than 0.01 mm, there will be little difference in sensing

distance between the metal foil and ferrous metal. If the target is,

however, extremely thin (e.g., metal-coating film) or not

conductive, the object will not be detected.

JINFLUENCE OF PLATING

The following percentage values indicate decreases or increases

in sensing distance on the basis of the sensing target with no

metal plating as 100%.
