REDUCE DOWNTIME

24 October 2012

Unplanned downtime in manufacturing is costly....

When loss of production is caused by a damaged sensor the machine must be stopped, the sensor identified, replaced, adjusted and secured in final position before the machine can be switched on and production begins again. All this takes time and costs money, even more time if the sensor is not immediately available, close at hand or held in stock.

If breakdowns are caused by damage to a pneumatic cylinder sensor, Balluff has a speedy solution to the problem in the form of Balluff BMF Magnetic Sensors and universal bracket fixing system, enabling Balluff sensors to be used on virtually any cylinder from any manufacturer. Instead of stocking many different cylinders switches from different sources it is possible to hold just Balluff BMF Magnetic Field Sensors and low cost brackets.

To make things even easier these sensors and brackets are now available in a purpose made, easy to carry, service case.
