- Save labor on lines, reduce costs and storage space for dedicated tools
- Preventive maintenance by status signal from tool end sensor
- Realize next-generation smart factories
Metal 2 sheet detection device

Metal 2 sheet detector Double blank analyzer
A system that prevents damage and troubles in molds and equipment by detecting double feed of metal sheets (blank materials).
- Highly reliable detection using magnetic or eddy current method with contact or non-contact sensor
- Many delivery records to automobile-related manufacturers around the world
Spot welding, sensor
Welding nut detection sensor

A sensor that detects the presence or absence of a welded nut by inserting a sensor head into the nut hole welded to the metal panel part.
IMI Norgren's Nut Sensor is a sensor for detecting the presence and quality of nuts and screws. While conventional technology was limited to checking the presence of nuts and screws, this product is highly sensitive and can also detect screws in tapped holes and hidden nuts. It helps prevent the outflow of defective products and reduce manual inspections in the automotive and metal processing industries, thereby reducing costs and improving production efficiency.
■ Features
Detection Technology
Uses an inductive proximity detection method to check the presence or absence of nuts and screws with high accuracy
Capable of detecting screws in tapped holes and hidden nuts
Quality Detection Function
Sensor can be calibrated with simple manual adjustment
LED indicator makes it easy to judge screw quality
Durability and environmental friendliness
All stainless steel construction withstands welding environments and is resistant to welding slag and abrasion
Resistant to welding fields and less susceptible to electromagnetic interference
Wide range of uses
Nut and screw detection, hidden nut detection, and thread confirmation in tapped holes
Suitable for use under heavy loads and harsh environments
Some models can also be used as gauge pins
Optional Features
Spring mount protects the sensor even when no holes are present
Offset adjustment of the sensor tip accommodates misalignment
Cost merit
Reduce scrap by preventing the outflow of defective products
Eliminating manual inspection reduces time and labor costs

- SNS Series (Toughened Nut Sensor)
- SNP Series (Nut Thread Detector)
- Use :
Checking the presence and quality of nuts and screws, checking threads in tapped holes, and detecting hidden nuts
Particularly suitable for quality control in automobile welding lines and metal processing sites. Also suitable for heavy loads and harsh environments.
Weld stud detection sensor

Sensor that detects the presence or absence of welded studs on metal panel parts
IMI Norgren's Stud Sensor is designed to detect the presence or absence of studs and screws. While conventional sensors can only confirm the presence of studs, this product can also detect the presence or absence of screws and is highly durable enough to withstand welding environments. It contributes to reducing scrap and preventing downtime in industries such as the automotive industry.
