The newest additions to Balluff’s line of distance sensors feature selectable modes that allow users to choose between IO-Link, voltage (0…10 V or 1…10 V), or analog (4…20 mA) outputs. The two new variations — the BOD002M with a 50 to 100 mm working distance and a resolution down to 10 μm, and the BOD002N […]
LVIT position sensors for submersible ROVs
LVITs (Linear Variable Inductance Transducers) are contactless linear position sensors that offer high reliability, durability, and performance, particularly an excellent stroke-to-length ratio, at reasonable cost. These features make them suitable for various internal systems functions within many Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) for subsea activities. Typical ROV system functions include maneuvering controls, rudder and directional positioning […]
Proximity sensors from Omron feature IO-Link, world’s longest sensing range
Manufacturers in the automotive industry are striving to make the most of the current trend towards electric vehicles and low fuel consumption by building lighter-weight vehicles and favoring aluminum over iron. As the prevalence of mixed production lines containing both iron and aluminum increases, the demand for same-sensing-distance proximity sensors with suitably long sensing ranges […]
