Hoffman Estates, Illinois, March 24, 2020 – Manufacturers in the automotive industry are trying to capitalize on the current trend toward electric vehicles and low fuel consumption by building lightweight vehicles and favoring aluminum over iron. With the spread of hybrid production lines that contain both iron and aluminum, the demand for proximity sensors with the same sensing distance with an appropriately long sensing range is also increasing.
Omron, a provider of end-to-end automation solutions, has launched the new E2EW series designed to meet this need. These highly durable metal face proximity sensors have the longest sensing range in their class to date and have been optimized to withstand the harsh conditions of typical automotive welding processes, with a fluoropolymer coating that provides increased spatter resistance.
The sensing range of the E2EW series is approximately twice that of the previous ferrous metal model and six times that of the previous aluminum model, making it an ideal solution for mixed metal production lines. Since the sensing range of the two metals is now equal, the sensor supports a universal design for position detection on such production lines. They also reduce unplanned facility downtime by minimizing false detection of unstable objects.
Features include:
• The world's longest iron and aluminum sensing distance. The equivalent sensing distance enables a universal design for position detection in mixed production lines with iron and aluminum components.
• Increased splash resistance. The E2EW sensor lasts up to 60 times longer than previous models in typical automotive welding applications.
• IIoT support via IO-Link. Support for IO-Link makes it possible to collect data in real time about the detection level and temperature changes of proximity sensors from a single location.

Common causes and solutions of PLC failures in Omron operation
Fault phenomenon: The analog module CJ1W-DA041 outputs 4-20mA current for 4 channels, of which channels 2 and 3 are normal, and channels 1 and 4 have no current output.
Analyzing the circuit, the 4 current outputs use 4 manifold LT1490 for D/A conversion, and first measure the manifold LT on 1 and 4 channels.
