Belt Alignment Sensors And Misalignment Switches
Electro-sensors belt alignment sensors are mounted along the conveyor belt that needs to be monitored for misalignment. The rub block assemblies are mounted so that the brass surface area is in-line with the edge of the conveyor belt. When the belt wanders it then rubs up against the brass block. The contact with the belt creates friction and heat that the sensor in the brass block records as a rise in temperature.

Digital Fiber Sensor
FX-300
Panasonic Industrial Devices Sales Company of America
Fiber Sensors have again taken another step forward. The deterioration of light emitting elements over time, previously accepted as unavoidable, as well as the conventional idea that Lenses could only be attached at the Fiber end, have now finally been overcome by Panasonic technology. A newly developed light eliminates deterioration, and by incorporating a Lens within the Fiber Sensor itself, stable long-range sensing for long periods of time is now possible for the first time ever.

Load Cells
A load cell is a sensor which transforms the load or force applied to it into an electrical signal. Load cell sensors are based on the strain-gauge principle i.e. a sensor whose resistance varies with applied force. They are the most widely used as load transducers in all areas of weight measurement from retail scales, the process industry and medical applications.
