IMX Inductive Proximity Sensors

SICK IMX inductive sensors deliver unmatched durability and reliability for industrial automation proximity switches. Featuring a 300% greater detection distance than standard inductive proximity sensors, the IMX establishes new possibilities for metal object detection in manufacturing.

These inductive proximity switches are engineered to resist oils and cooling lubricants, making them ideal for harsh industrial environments where ferrous material detection is critical. This enhanced protection significantly extends service life while simplifying installation — the visual adjustment indicator eliminates the need for prior parameterization.

In space-critical locations, these sensors save valuable space with their compact design. Users can select an IMX sensor one size smaller than standard sensors to achieve comparable sensing ranges. Proximity sensors in the IMX portfolio help reduce downtime and create stable processes.
