Abstract: Magnetostrictive position sensors (MS sensors) are based on a Time-of-Flight (TOF) measurement of an ultrasonic signal in a waveguide. These sensors can be used for absolute long-range as ...
To the extent that you’re familiar with magnetostriction, you probably know that it’s what makes big transformers hum, or that it’s what tips you off if you happen to walk out of a store without ...
Linear variable differential transformers (LVDTs) have been commercially used for more than 50 years. Originally developed as a laboratory instrument, LVDTs are now utilized in various industries such ...
Alliance Sensors Group, a manufacturer of linear and rotary position sensors and electronics, has announced the launch of its MR series of linear position sensors for use in measuring the ram position ...
As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...
Ever-more complex industrial motor control requires methods to enhance precision. Enter the inductive position sensor. The benefits of a dual inductive rotary sensor. How inductive position sensors ...
NewTek AC-operated LVDT Position Sensors can serve as a more reliable, precise and cost-effective alternative to magnetostrictive linear position sensors in the monitoring and control of valves in ...
Because power generation environments can reach temperatures of 250°C (475°F), magnetostrictive technology might fail or become inaccurate over time. While very accurate in benign applications, most ...
