ELECTRONICS: The KEYENCE LK-G5000 Laser Displacement Sensor, now with a newly developed RS-CMOS sensor, provides a 392 kHz sampling rate that’s 8 times faster than previous models, ±0.02% Full Scale ...

Sensors for the measurement of displacement based on a number of different physical principles are available for a wide range of applications. This article considers systems capable of resolutions of ...

Inductive eddy current position/displacement sensors require an electrically conductive target. The target does not have to be grounded, and in general, the more electrically conductive it is, the ...

When the job at hand is measuring something with micron-range precision, thoughts generally turn to a tool with a Mitutoyo or Starrett nameplate. But with a clever design and a little electronics know ...

Linear encoders by their very design overcome various mechanical machine limitations by providing a direct source of positional feedback. They can monitor most applications, including hostile, oily ...

Elite series non-contact sensors measure very small displacements of conductive materials with high resolution in precise positioning applications. Compact WA and WI inductive displacement transducers ...

UNDERWATER sound waves are often thought of primarily as pressure waves. But a full description of any time-alternating hydrodynamic disturbance must also include a specification of the vector field ...

Bruker’s UMT TriboLab™ test system has the ability to accurately and reliably perform such precision measurements across wide displacement (µm to mm) and force (mN to kN) ranges. This extraordinary ...

Providing an output proportional to shaft rotation over a range up to 120º, the RSE 1500 series rotary position sensors measure the position of quarter-turn valves, flue dampers, weir gates, dancer ...

Featuring non-contacting Hall Effect technology, the Vishay Sfernice 34 PHE delivers linearity down to ±1% (full stroke), ...
