capacitive or inductive proximity halo. I want to ask which is better capacitive or inductive proximity for use in the auto leveling bed? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,530979#msg-530979 Mon, 07 Sep 2026 18:03:59 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,532292#msg-532292 Re: capacitive or inductive proximity https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,532292#msg-532292 greggo General Tue, 14 Jul 2015 02:34:50 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,531882#msg-531882 Re: capacitive or inductive proximity https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,531882#msg-531882
Which sensor is your favorite. capastive proximity, inductive or infrared?]]> fikri General Sun, 12 Jul 2015 22:49:46 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,531869#msg-531869 Re: capacitive or inductive proximity https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,531869#msg-531869 www.amazon.com]

i use this one, consistent with heat and moisture (live in FL) and it runs on 5v so no weird stepdown voltage divider sass]]> greggo General Sun, 12 Jul 2015 21:36:50 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,531286#msg-531286 Re: capacitive or inductive proximity https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,531286#msg-531286
I want to ask again. What if I use the bed only aluminum plate without giving heat-resistant masking tape. if it does nothing when printing?]]> fikri General Fri, 10 Jul 2015 18:58:15 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,530991#msg-530991 Re: capacitive or inductive proximity https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,530979,530991#msg-530991
Remember that the low cost proximity sensors you can buy are intended to detect if an object is there or not, not to provide a stable distance reference reprodicible to a few hundredths of a mm.

I settled on differential modulated IR because it provides a height reference from the top surface of the glass and works with most print surfaces, with the caveat that when used with plain glass, it doesn't like a strongly reflecting surface under the glass. I am about to put these sensors into mass production.
