Measurement Tape Position Sensor Accurately Handles up to 25 Meters

April 16, 2012 By Randy Frank

Measuring lengths of up to 25 m accurately in small space can pose a problem in industrial applications. ASM Sensors cable-actuated POSITAPE tape extension position sensors address these challenges with the WB25 series. The unit’s angular sensing element consists of a magnetic encoder that translates the linear motion into an electrical signal. To handle the […]

Three-dimensional Hall Encoders for Industrial Apps

November 26, 2010 By Randy Frank

Austriamicrosystems is developing a portfolio of 3D Hall products for automotive and industrial applications. The 3D HallinOne magnetic encoder family provides absolute and highest resolution angular or linear output data. The AS540x series uses two “pixel-cells” in a differential mode to guarantee robustness against all possible external influences like stray magnetic fields.  In addition, the […]
