Roemheld launches R4600 wireless hydraulic clamping sensor
The R4600 electronic pressure sensor from Roemheld offers stationary and mobile measurement of rotating or hard-to-reach sections of hydraulic clamping fixtures.
Designed for use with automatic manufacturing systems, transfer lines, assembly lines and rotary indexing fixtures and tables, up to 16 pressure sensors can be configured and monitored from a single receiver.
Suitable for applications where wired connections are impractical or too expensive, the sensor uses radio transmission with a free-field range of up to 300 m. The sensor enables the pressure of single or multiple points to be checked simultaneously during start-up and maintenance. Pressure drops in hydraulic clamping fixtures can be identified in real time, helping to avoid tool breakage and machine damage.
