About Eickmann Elektronik
Eickmann Elektronik is a medium-sized company in Iserlohn that develops and manufactures optoelectronic sensors and input devices for industrial automation. The product portfolio includes fork and frame light barriers, photoelectric sensors, light grids, proximity sensors (inductive and capacitive), ring sensors, capacitive field-effect switches, LED machine lights, light-guide cables as well as special sensors such as laser centering units for robotics and rotation sensors. Manufacturing takes place on a fully automated SMD production line for electronics assembly and on a mechanical machining center for housings made of aluminum and stainless steel; custom sensor developments and special versions including individual pictograms complement the range. Fields of application include automation technology, mechanical and special machinery engineering, labeling technology, medical technology, elevator and escalator construction, automotive, robotics and CNC machines. Sales are handled via an international distributor network in Europe and Asia; the products are listed as ISO-9001-certified.
