In a move that underscores its leadership in measuring inductive sensors, Baumer has introduced new models from the AlphaProx family. These sensors feature an expanded measuring range of 3mm or 6mm—a 50% increase—which enables safer installation distances from objects. This advancement is particularly beneficial for critical applications like monitoring saw blade deformation, as it minimizes mechanical risks and eliminates costly downtime or alternative sensor replacements.

The AlphaProx lineup includes models in dimensions Ø6.5, M8, and M12. Among these, the Ø6.5 and M8 variants stand out due to their compact size—measuring just 30 mm in length. As the smallest sensors in their class, they represent a significant step forward in miniaturization. This design flexibility allows for easier installation in tight or hard-to-reach areas within machinery, expanding the AlphaProx portfolio’s potential applications and improving overall system adaptability.
