  • Linear-Measuring System Saves Space
    can also attract dirt. The most rugged solution for highly accurate position sensing, says Keller, is an inductive linear-measuring device integrated in ball and roller-rail systems. The linear-motion guides have a graduated scale with a precise pitch of 1,000 m. Pitch is etched into the scale
  • Sizing and Applying Magnetostrictive Linear Position Sensors
    temperature, pressure, flow, force, or position, for example. The type of measurement and the sensor technology will dictate the set of parameters which are important in specifying and sizing the appropriate sensor. Linear-position sensors measure absolute distance along a motion axis
  • Linear Encoders
    described above are limited to measuring lengths of about 3 m or so. Encoders that measure longer distances contain scales made from steel tape. A typical tape is about 0.3 mm thick and contains a grating of highly reflective gold lines with. Linear Encoders | Machine Design. Skip to Content. Home
  • When to go Linear
    Optical or magnetic linear encoders handle high-res needs in dirty jobs. Magnetic-based linear encoders combined with linear guides and motor stages, like those used on this linearmotion-platform, offer direct measuring and control systems that are simple, accurate, and handle contaminants well
  • Resulting Position Error After Mulitpoint Linear Error Compensation with the LIDA 400 (.pdf)
    measuring device. The measurement is recorded with a measurement interval of one millimeter. An example for the position error over the measuring length is shown in Figure 1. HEIDENHAIN ascertains the position error after multipoint linear error compensation (residual error) at compensation point
  • Replacing Linear Encoders with Magnetostrictive Technology
    Designing with Magnetostrictive Sensors opens many options. This article explores how Design Engineers are increasingly finding that magnetostrictive linear position sensors can replace their encoders in applications while improving productivity and cost of ownership. 551282A_LCO674_Replacing
  • Finding the right sensor for linear displacement
    MLDT ( magnetostrictive linear displacement transducers) uses a moving magnet to create a torsional pulse in a metallic waveguide. The pulse moves down the waveguide at a known speed to a wave detector. By measuring the transit time, MLDTs produce an output proportional to the magnet's position
  • Linear Encoders - Out With Glass, In With Steel
    . Measuring linear motion in an industrial environment can be a difficult task. It requires, at minimum, the consideration of four factors — sealing, speed, connectivity, and environment. Sealing: Dust, liquids, and debris are common in industrial environments, and they can wreak havoc on traditional
