Elobau will once again be represented as an exhibitor at this year’s ConExpo. In South Hall 4, S85221, the German manufacturer of sensors and operator controls will present its new generation of tilt sensors with the N6 static and the N7 dynamic. The N6 static enables high-precision measurement under harsh environmental conditions, in stationary operations […]

POSITAL introduces next-generation TILTIX inclinometers
POSITAL has updated its family of TILTIX inclinometers with new three-axis MEMS accelerometers, enhanced firmware, and a new housing concept. These changes enable POSITAL to streamline manufacturing processes and reduce delivery times while maintaining full environmental protection. The new versions are compatible with older models, with identical mounting footprint and support for CANopen and analog […]
New Gefran inclination sensors from AutomationDirect
AutomationDirect has added Gefran inclination sensors to their growing lineup of position transducers. Gefran sensors use cutting-edge MEMS technology (micro-electromechanical devices integrated onto a single silicon chip) to provide reliable and precise tilt angle measurement with respect to gravity. The Gefran sensors are rugged and suitable for the harshest environments. They come in an encapsulated, […]
High-accuracy inclination sensor in robust stainless steel housing
The new high-accuracy inclination sensor positilt PTM29 in a compact, laser-welded stainless steel housing is suitable for extremely harsh environmental conditions. It can also be used in place of rotary sensors with many benefits. The MEMS-based inclination sensor positilt PTM29 measures inclination in the range of +/-180° with one axis and in the range of […]
New inclination sensor positilt PTM27
The new high-accuracy inclination sensor positilt PTM27 in an ultra-compact housing is suitable for applications where high robustness and accuracy are required. It can also replace rotary angle sensors advantageously. ASM introduces a new inclination sensor that is robust, comes in an ultra-compact housing, and provides high accuracy. The new positilt PTM27 sensor measures inclination […]
How can you sense tilt to control a robotic arm?
At Sensor Expo 2019, Devon Brock, Manager of Product Knowledge for the Sensor Group within TE Connectivity explains the DOG2 microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) -based inclinometer used to control a robotic arm. The two-axis tilt sensor provides ±90-degree measurements in the x and y axes. In the robotic arm, the inclinometer with its built-in electronic provides […]
Pepperl+Fuchs announces portfolio expansion
The new F199 from Pepperl+Fuchs is optimized for high-accuracy inclination measurement. Like other inclination sensors, the F199 provides measurement feedback of the angle tilt of machines or machine elements relative to gravitational force. But where standard sensors reach their limits because of inaccuracy, the F199 is the ideal solution. The F199 precisely measures angles from 0 to 360° with […]
Posital acceleration-compensated inclinometers gain a new interface option
Posital has added a new communications interface for its innovative Dynamic TILTIX series – making it even easier to use these smart and rugged instruments in mobile machinery and heavy duty construction vehicles. Now available with either CANopen or SAE J1939 interfaces, these acceleration-compensated tilt sensors are able to deliver accurate measurement under the harshest […]
Sensor fusion inclinometer for itch, yaw, and roll feedback
Joral LLC announces a G-force compensated inclinometer that provides feedback for pitch, yaw, and roll. The new technology uses sensor fusion, which is the combining of more than one complementary sensing method. The new Joral SGAM and DGAM incline sensors take input by a gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer to provide a 3-axis output for X, […]
How do sensors make a smart crane safer?
Watching a crane operator elevate and transport a heavy load over a significant distance to a precise location with an articulated crane is always a fascinating and thought-provoking activity. With today’s concerns about job safety, how is safety handled in this process? Safety begins with the skill of the crane operator but today’s sensors and […]
