[Answer/Discuss]( TECH ARTICLE [] [Operating principles for inductive proximity sensors]( "Inductive proximity sensors are used for non-contact detection of metallic objects. Their operating principle is based on a coil and oscillator that creates an electromagnetic field in the close surroundings of the sensing surface. The presence of a metallic object (actuator) in the operating area causes a dampening of the oscillation amplitude." [Read this article in its entirety](.
