RFID

Our RFID systems are used to make all production steps transparent and traceable and are therefore an essential component in implementing the requirements of modern production and keeping track of all data at all times.

Network modules

Ever faster, more flexible, more efficient and more adaptable production requires seamless communication from the sensor to the internet. This requires components that provide this information. At the same time, an infrastructure is needed that transports the data across all levels.

Inductive sensors

Available in:

25 Series

Balluff offers a wide range of inductive proximity switches and sensors for various applications and industries. Whether standard inductive proximity sensors, high-pressure sensors, hygienic sensors / washdown compliant, factor 1 sensors, magnetic field resistant by magnetic shielding, weld immune proximity sensors, high temperature sensors, explosion-proof (IECEx, ATEX) or NAMUR sensors, you are guaranteed to find the right product for your individual application in our portfolio thanks to different housing materials and sealing methods. We offer different designs, housing diameters and thread sizes for easy integration in a wide range of situations and for optimum solutions even where space is limited.

The technology used worldwide has an optimum price-performance ratio and can be supplied in short delivery times, even for large quantities.

Increase the availability of your systems and reduce maintenance and storage costs at the same time with inductive proximity switches from Balluff.
