Industrial sensors are key to smart manufacturing

Sensors are known as "industrial artifacts". It is detection devices which can sense the measured information and convert it into electrical signals or other required forms of information output to meet the requirements of information transmission, processing, storage, display, recording and control.

With the development of modern information technology today, sensors are becoming more and more important. IoT, artificial intelligence, smart manufacturing, etc. are all inseparable from sensors. Sensors have naturally incarnated as human beings' extension organs that connect machines, humans themselves, and the natural environment. They help humans turn once unknowable and difficult-to-judge information into easily obtainable and more accurate data, sensors have become the most important infrastructure in the digital society.

Sensors are designed based on the physical, chemical, and biological properties and laws of materials. There are many classification methods for sensors.

For example,

- According to the input, sensors can be divided into pressure, displacement, speed, temperature, humidity, etc.

- According to measurement principles, sensors can be divided into physical sensors, chemical sensors, and biological sensors. Such as voltage type, thermoelectric type, resistance type, photoelectric type, induction type, etc.

- According to manufacturing process, there are diffused silicon sensors, monocrystalline silicon sensors, ceramic sensors, Glass micro melting sensors, sapphire sensors etc.

- According to output, there are analog (4~20mA, 0~5V, 0.5~4.5V), digital (RS485, I2C) or switch signal (PNP, NPN)

Sensors are already widely used in environmental monitoring, traffic management, medical health, agriculture and animal husbandry, fire safety, production and manufacturing, aerospace, electronic products, and other fields.

Especially in industrial process control, for example, printing and dyeing industry, SFC system, sensors collect real-time data of a series of parameters such as water, electricity, steam, temperature, humidity, chemical concentration, width, pattern accuracy, etc. And the automatic control device makes online real-time adjustments according to the process requirements and data collection. Also, sensors automatically measure and configure the materials and chemicals in printing and dyeing workshops. During this whole process, there is no need for manual labor intervention, and the whole process is automatically completed by intelligent equipment. Which greatly reduces the operation error and improves the accuracy of the dye preparation compared with the traditional weighing and chemical method. Also reduces labor, improve labor productivity.
