Roland Einspieler, an application engineer for ams (austria microsystems), explains linear position measurement in an automotive clutch application using the company’s 3D Hall effect absolute position sensor at Sensors Expo 2012. The sensor was a Best of Sensors Expo winner in 2011. For more information about ams AS5410 3D Hall sensor, click here. To watch […]
Applying SENSOFOIL Technology
Jens Kautzor, sales director for Hoffmann + Krippner discusses two applications for the company’s SENSOFOIL membrane technology with Randy Frank at Sensors Expo 2011. SENSOFOIL membranes enable the design of ultra-flat and very accurate linear and rotary position sensors based on potentiometer technology. For more information about Hoffmann + Krippner’s SENSOFOIL membranes, click here. To […]
Balluff’s Linear Position Transducer Fits Into Small Spaces and Small Budgets
Designed to fit into small spaces, Balluff’s Micropulse PF-series linear transducer has a profile of less than 1-inch high. The low profile design targets plastic injection and blow molding; woodworking and metalforming; material handling and more. Using magnetostrictive sensing technology, the unit has a measurable range of 51 to 4572 mm (2 to 180 in) […]
TURCK Linear position Sensors Replace Magnetostrictive and Potentiometer Devices
Minneapolis, MN — TURCK’s new LI-Q25 series linear position sensors replace magnetostrictive and potentiometer devices to deliver precise, repeatable measurements in metal processing machines, rolling mills or injection molding machines. Unlike magnetostrictive or magnetic inductive position sensors, LI-Q25 sensors do not require a magnetic positioning device; thus, they are unaffected by metal debris. The sensors […]
