To implement a motion control system, it is necessary to sense the movement of a device that is rotating or travelling along a straight line. This requirement is common in a growing number of ...

Traditional analog sensing is applied in two non-traditional housing styles in the Bi20R-Q14-LU ring style and the Wi70-M18-LIU5 probe style sensors. The Bi20R-Q14-LU is a 3-wire, 15-30VDC sensor with ...

The ME and MR Series are used to measure the ram position of hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders in industrial, mobile, or subsea applications. The ME (embedded version) and MR (port-mount version) ...

Position feedback sensors for hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders have most commonly used one of three technologies: magneto-strictive (MLDTs), variable resistance (pots), and variable inductance (LVITs) ...

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 ...

As the demand for greater control and functionality increases, position-sensor-instrumented hydraulic cylinders are becoming more important in the heavy industry, mobile equipment, and subsea worlds.
