MOTION CONTROL: Balluff’s new Micropulse® ProCompact linear position transducer is rugged, accurate and protected against environmental hazards. The rod-style transducer incorporates field-proven, non ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

Real-world applications for linear position sensors can be challenging. High humidity, ambient temperature variations, high pressure wash down, and exposure to caustic chemicals can all take a toll on ...

Magnetostrictive transducers, used for controlling motion in injection moulding machines, offer a noncontact and wear-free mode of operation. The magnetic position marker can be guided over the ...

Many types of industrial processing equipment use sensors to provide information needed to monitor and control processes. This allows design parameters to be maintained or modified in order to ...

Offered as an alternative to proximity switches where continuous linear feedback is necessary, the EZ-Track programmable, auto-tuning non-contact linear displacement transducers (LDTs) employ ...

AutomationDirect has added Gefran WPG and WPP series magnetostrictive linear position transducers. These transducers work like other linear position sensors by translating a linear position to an ...

To attain accurate positioning, a servo system requires a feedback signal to close its feedback loop. Instruments that typically supply the feedback signal include optical encoders, resolvers, and ...
