Photoelectric Sensors

Panasonic (formerly Sunx) self-contained and amplifier-separated photoelectric sensors provide high sensing performance solutions in miniature, ultra-slim, compact, and rectangular housings. Utilizing infrared and red LED light sources, Panasonic sensors are designed to exceed your most challenging requirements for short and long distance sensing applications.


Area/Bin Picking Sensors

From the detection of small slim objects, to an advanced series of bin picking sensors that simplify manual assembly processes, Panasonic (formerly Sunx) area sensors are an extremely versatile solution.


Fiber Optic Cables and Amplifiers

Ramco offers a full line-up of Panasonic fiber optic cables from general purpose use fibers to special fibers that are compatible with all of the Panasonic Fiber Optic Amplifiers.

When your application calls for push button teach setup or a simple manual adjust fiber optic amplifiers look to Panasonic (formerly SUNX) for the best solution. Panasonic also has over 180 fiber optic cables complimenting these best-in-class amplifiers. If your solution requires, long distance, high-temperature, high flexibility, or vacuum/chemical resistance Panasonic can provide the right fiber cable. Explore the models listed below to find the best fiber amp and fiber cable for your needs.


Laser Sensors

Laser sensors offer a long sensing range and precision that can not be matched with LED based solutions. Panasonic (formerly Sunx) offers both self contained and amplifier separate laser sensors that provide maximum flexibility in solving applications.


Inductive Proximity Sensors

Panasonic (formerly Sunx) has a broad range of inductive proximity sensors for reliable detection of all metal targets. Available in self-contained and amp-separate packages they can provide accurate detection with micron repeatability. High temperature and shock resistance allows use of Panasonic inductive proximity sensors in your most challenging environments.


Micro-Photoelectric Sensors

The ultra-small PM series of u-shaped and diffuse convergent photoelectric sensors provides a wide range of models to provide miniaturization of your equipment. All PM u-shaped models are equipped with two outputs, one for Light-ON and the other for Dark-ON sensing. These versatile sensors are available in a connector type and cabled versions to maximize ease of installation.


Pressure Sensors

Pressure sensors from Panasonic (formerly Sunx) offer self contained and separate head types for maximum versatility in your pressure sensing applications. All series' are available in positive pressure, vacuum, and compound pressure ranges as well as multiple port size and output options.


Liquid Handling Sensors

Panasonic offers a wide variety of liquid leak, liquid level, liquid measurement detection sensors in both contact and non-contact versions.


Measurement Sensors

When your application calls for the precision measurement of dimensions such as thickness, diameter,and height, Panasonic (formerly Sunx) has the solution. Very high-quality laser displacement, inductive displacement,and collimated beam sensors provide high-speed and accurate measurement solutions.


Safety Light Curtains

Panasonic safety light curtains offer category 2 & 4 protection and are suitable for your entire machine safeguarding needs. Offering units with no dead zone detection and built-in muting and blanking functions, Panasonic can provide you with a solution that is tailored to the needs of your machine.


Safety Components and Control Units

Ramco offers a large variety of Panasonic safety components including control units, door switches, emergency (e-stop) stops, enable grip switches, and more.


Sensor Controllers

Panasonic (formerly Sunx) offers several sensor controller units to get the most out of analog and discrete output sensor solutions. With built-in displays, integrated timers, simple logic control, arithmetic functions, and signal converters these units are perfect for usage where the PLCs requires a different input or not is not accessible.


Static Control Devices

Static charge on assembly line can have devastating effects on sensitive work pieces. The solution is the line of Panasonic (formerly Sunx) static sensing and reduction sensors. The high-frequency AC ionizers offer extremely fast charge reduction by emitting a highly balanced ion stream directly to your parts before static discharge has a chance to damage them. Explore the models listed below to find the best unit for your needs.


Special Use Devices

Panasonic (formerly Sunx) offers sensors that accomplish highly specialized tasks for the following industries that require sensors for automation: Semiconductor, printing, packaging, metal stamping, process control, material handling, medical, and automotive.


Wire Saving/Bus Systems

The Panasonic (formerly Sunx) S-LINK is a bit-level bus system that can handle up to 128 I/O points on two signal lines. The "T"-branch multi-drop system enables flexible cable layout and the use of IDC crimp style connections dramatically reduces installation/modification costs. S-LINK gateway controllers provide communication with other high level bus systems such as DeviceNet and CC-link.


Programmable Logic Controllers

The Panasonic PLC line-up includes both low-cost compact programmable controllers with little space requirement which are suitable for many basic tasks and high-end PLCs like the flagship FP7.

A multitude of useful functions has been successfully integrated into the compact PLCs so that they offer many of the advantages of a modular high-end PLC such as analog control, network communication, and positioning control. All Panasonic PLCs offer an outstanding price-performance ratio.

Thanks to the innovative programming software Control FPWIN Pro, it takes minimal effort to achieve a maximum result with the programmable controllers. For example, the programming software provides many ready-made functions and function blocks. This allows you to use our know-how for your programs, saving you a lot of time for programming and debugging.

Like all other Panasonic products, programmable controllers are subjected to much more severe conditions than they will ever encounter in actual operation to ensure a long service life in your application.
