SICK is currently the only company to offer this ”2 in 1” sensor concept, providing users greater functional reliability with rapid piston movements, two-fold final position detection in pneumatic cylinders, and the precise detection of different gripper positions.

The MZ2Q-C complements our existing programmable sensor offering as an addition to the programmable T-slot sensor, the MZ2Q, launched during last year. The MZ2Q, designed for T-slot cylinders, is also available for installation on a variety of magnetic cylinders with the help of the three mounting systems. These three different mounting systems allow MZ2Q Sensors to be installed on round, integrated profile, dovetail and tie-rod cylinders. And, the MZ2Q-C sensor offers an enclosure rating of IP 67, for tough environments.
