Hello! Can I ask which sensor should I use if I want to detect different types of plastic (PET, PVC etc)? They have different wavelengths but I’m not sure which sensor to use for detecting them separately.
Also, from where can I get it?
Thank you!
hello sir,
Proximity sensors
how much distance of the object can be detect?
Will it detects humans?
Hello, do you have a codes for capacitive proximity and inductive sensor using arduino? Can you please provide a link of it. We are having a project about using capacitive proximity and inductive 3pins. Can you please help us ? It would be a great help. Thanks. Godbless . More power.
Thanks sir.
So they use these for speed detection and abs systems?
Can i increase the range of an inductive sensor? Im using the unshielded one. 3 pins.
tbh i’m really confused on how to connect Proximity Sensors in series 2:12
I am sonny from China, I need your guidance for choosing sensors and motors for my project. I want to detect paper(banknotes) and then i need to trigger the motor to open the gate/ door of storing place.
Howdy… Where is the video for the magnetic sensors? Thanks
for measure the gap around 50mm by blinking the signal of big bulb to see the operator , which type of proximity i shall be used. please help.
thank <3
Thank you! Very helpful!
Thanks from HTM sensors!
Can a proximity switch be used like a momentary switch? I’m trying to add a neutral safety to my transmission shifer and wanted to add one to the shifter under the boot at each gear position. Ideally they’d be normally closed in series with the crank request wire that goes to the PCM so if one detects the shifter it opens the circuit
thank you
Why don’t ANY of these videos ever talk about the flat type?
which proximity sensor will be best ?
very helpful thanks
Sir,were can i get this capacitive proximity sensors
Can you provide the link for purchasing that sensor
Great vid. Question; if trying to sense periphery, what is the best inductive sensor; or capacitive?
Nice, Many thanks Sir.
Hi, What would be the best sensor to use to dectect basketball? I would like record each made basketet into a database via bluetooth.
Short and informative video
Very useful material good
Sir how can I make proximity sensor as distance measuring device??? Plz help
I have a breakdown of a main account motor that’s not turning, it has a damaged proximity sensor pointing to the main motor shaft. How can I tell what type the sensor is
4:34 where can I find these cables?
Can you tell me what the next video is going to be called with the magnet sensors. Cant seem to find it
does this series circuit work for npn nc
i would like to detect the end of roll using proximity sensor. SO if the paper roll runs out of paper i want to immediately set a trigger. which sensor can i use ?
I have proximity sensor that senses gear teeth and in turn in moves a cable out a set amount but the technician said the PLC and sensor are not reading the same value so he increased the value in the control and said basically I would have to live with it like that. Help ! Having problems ever since he did that
Very useful, keep it up, thank you very much
Bisa kah proximity sensor di jadi kan alat metal ditektor terima kasih
How do working proximity sensor? Can you explain to me or making a vedio.
hi im working on my final year project. planning to detection of object’s vibration that fall down from high place and monitoring the localization in real time. what sensor should i use?
It is very nice !
I have one rupper part both top and bottom diameter is variation 0.1mm but pitch is vary what type of sensor to be detect
Thank you for useful information, i want a proximity sensor to dectect the rpm of a bolt and i once the rpm is reduced i want the linear actuator to work with the help of arduino. what kind of sensor should be best for it?
u talk so fast i cant understand
Awesome video explanation, thank you!!
Very informative and helpful video!! I have a question though, I know the capacitive sensor is capable of detecting any objects that has a dieletric constant greater than air but can it MEASURE its change of capacitance once it detects a non-conductive material?
superb….
Why u r using-ve voltage in vibration sensor why not+ve?
Looking for the next video on magnetic proximity sensors but canβt seem to find it. Can you share the link? Are magnetic proximity sensors primarily used for safety door interlocks? have a rectangular tray held in place with two magnetic arms (The two shorter sides of the rectangular tray sit on the two magnetic arms). There are cases when the tray can move upwards (away from the arms). Can a magnetic proximity sensor pointed at the top of the tray detect motion of the tray when it moves away from the magnetic arm momentarily? Thinking about mae-ap-1f
For underwater to detect object what kind of sensor i want use?
Γtima explicaΓ§ao. Obrigado.
I want to detect very small metallic objects like screws , nails, washers 1-2 mm dia embedded in rubber-foam material that is moving 0n a conveyor. The sensor should be as large as possible (50 mm or higher). The sensing distance should be about 30 mm. Kindly suggest
Thanks for useful video. What sensor would you recommend for film base substrate? I need something that can be used for detecting motion picture film eg. super 8, 16mm, 35mm etc.
hi question: what kind of sensor ( not proximity switch ) would you use for example if you have 2 metallic objects in close contact with each other and you want to activate an alarm and a warning light when these two objects get separated and not in contact anymore? thank you
Very helpfull for in my feature
