Thread & Stud Sensors
Missing studs and studs with missing threads can mean thousands of dollars lost in scrap and time spent hand sorting. Our inductive stud sensors are a technological leap forward, with the widest detection range and the sturdiest construction in the industry. Our stud sensors help prevent delays and reduce the cost of quality control during sheet metal fabrication.
Quality Checking
Are you trying to use an off-the-shelf sensor to detect whether a stud is present or not or whether it has threads? It’s a little late to learn that a stud has no threads when you’re trying to bolt an assembly together. Our inductive stud thread detector is the only sensor engineered to be sensitive and reliable enough to detect threads, so you’ll never again send a welded piece through to assembly with a faulty stud.
Harsh Environments
Every time a stud touches a sensor, the threads act like a file, slowly wearing the housing and faceplate away, unless of course, that sensor is our stud thread detector. With all steel housings and faceplate, this detector stands up to rigorous use. And we have mastered the art of keeping the steel sensor tuned. Not every steel sensor can do that.
Heavy Side Loading
Automation is precise and repetitive, but it’s not always perfect. Sometimes a part comes down on a sensor just enough out of place to impact the sensor. This can damage or wear out an ordinary sensor, but not the stud thread detector. The stainless steel construction stands up to heavy side loading, and it won’t gouge the threads either.
