Pull type solenoids meet the user’s requirement
Magnetic Sensor Systems (MSS) released their S-20-100X model of Pull Type Tubular Solenoids. Their S-20-100X series of solenoids features 18 different solenoids to select from based on the user’s Voltage, Duty Cycle, Force and Stroke requirement. MSS Solenoids coils typically use Class “F” 23 to 40 AWG windings with Class “A” insulation for better solenoid […]
Detect Small Parts with Inductive Tube Sensors
Detecting fast moving small metal parts is among the many challenges in automated assembly applications. Balluff’s newest inductive tube sensors can take this off the challenge list. The sensor’s pulse extension of 150 ms results in reliable detection of fast-moving parts. In addition, the units are easily installed by a simple attachment to infeed tubes […]
Using Integrated Giant Magnetoresistance Sensors for EVs and HEVs
At the SAE Hybrid Vehicle Technologies Symposium in Anaheim, CA, Dusan Gravoc, senior manager and Head of Product Marketing for Infineon Technologies AG shows how an iGMR sensing IC can replace incremental encoders and resolvers in electric and hybrid vehicles. Infineon’s TLE5012 is housed in a small SO-8 package that targets integration in electrically commutated […]
