Plunger stroke in IS machines

For 24-hour operation in the glass production involving more than 5 million measuring cycles pear year, Micro-Epsilon has developed an inductive EDS displacement sensor. This sensor determines the exact plunger position in IS machines and allows for the production to be carried out according to predefined specifications. In order to increase resistance to lubricants and shock loads, the entire sensor and electronics are now welded into a tight stainless steel housing.
