SMC Actuator Position Sensor — D-MP Series
An analogue, IO-Link compatible sensor that slots directly into the actuator groove to track the stroke position of pneumatic cylinders with 0.1 mm repeatability. Supplied by Pankaj Enterprises as part of the genuine SMC pneumatic automation range.
Product Description
SMC's D-MP series Actuator Position Sensor tracks the stroke position of pneumatic cylinders using an analogue output signal, sliding directly into the actuator's sensor groove for fast, tool-free installation. It supports IO-Link communication alongside conventional analogue output, giving flexible integration into both legacy and Industry 4.0-ready control systems. Supplied by Pankaj Enterprises as a genuine SMC product for automation engineers and panel builders across India.
- Directly slotted into the actuator groove — no separate bracket or mounting hardware required
- Four selectable measurement ranges (25, 50, 100 and 200 mm) cover a wide span of cylinder strokes
- Analogue voltage (0 to 10 V) or current (4 to 20 mA) output, reversible, plus IO-Link compatibility
- Simple touch-pad setting for quick configuration without external software
Applications
- Continuous stroke-position feedback on pneumatic cylinders in automated machines
- Multi-position/multi-step process control requiring analogue position data
- Predictive maintenance and Industry 4.0 IO-Link data collection
- Applications needing precise end-of-stroke and mid-stroke position confirmation
- Retrofitting analogue position feedback onto existing SMC cylinder installations
- Packaging, assembly and material-handling equipment with cylinder-based motion
