• Linear-Measuring System Saves Space
  offers micron-level accuracy in rugged production environments. Today, dimensions in the micrometer range are common in all industries, says Ruediger Keller, product manager for integrated measuring systems at Bosch Rexroth, Schweinfurt, Germany (boschrexroth-us.com). This level of accuracy...
• Measuring Small: Measuring Tape and Track Width (Published in Computer Technology Review)
  . To measure this, the measurement system should have an accuracy of 1/10th the measured object, or in this case .1 micron. Measuring small in the computer hardware field is just part of challenge. The advent of nanotechnology and microscopic machines in other fields makes the capability to do this even...
• Measure Angles on Rotating Systems with High Resolution
  A common approach to measuring distance or angle in a rotating system is by using an incremental encoder or resolver. The majority of industrial applications, such as machines or drives, are dominated by optical encoder -either with incremental or absolute output of the distance or angle. However...
• Machine Vision for Packaging Blends Science, Engineering and Art
  measuring net content to checking seal integrity and labeling. The machine vision system helps verify that the package meets containment requirements. Short counts are one of the major challenges in solid dosage packaging today. They can occur in a number of different situations: Today...
• Positioning in nanometers
  are from 2 to 80 lb in each axis. Practically, the two-phase stepper can reach a resolution of about 5 microns (0.0002 in.) open loop on coarse travel. Even better accuracy is available by mapping the platen, that is, measuring its minute peaks and valleys and writing software to compensate. Finally...
• Magnetostriction: How It Works
  . environments and the sensors perform reliably. Some applications,. had the idea of generating an ultrasonic wave at a varying location. such as high end injection molding machines, require micron-level. along the waveguide by using a permanent magnet. See Figure 7. resolutions. Recent advances...
• Proximity Sensors
  with resolutions to 10-7 in. (0.001 micron). Probe diameters range from a few thousandths of an inch to several feet for corresponding measurements ranging from thousandths of an inch to several feet. Probe selection depends on the material to be sensed. Probes for sensing nonconducting surfaces...
• When to go Linear
  . The coarse scale pitch allows much larger installation tolerances. Magnetic-scale accuracy today rivals optical-tape scales. Some magnetic encoders have accuracy in the single-digit micron range over meters of scale length with nanometer resolution. However, those do require a mechanical alignment...
• Full-Field Dynamic Displacement and Strain Measurement Using Advanced 3D Image Correlation Photogrammetry
  camera bar on a. micron, and with a 30 cm field of view, it is 10 microns, as. tripod, ready for measuring at a load frame. Since. shown in Table 1. The system intrinsically measures 3D. rigid body motion is not an issue, the same setup. shape, and therefore 3D deformations are measured. can...
• Closed-Loop Servo Puts Spring Force On Target
  ) under controlled force or displacement with accuracy measuring in the microns. One major difference between this and other systems is in the encoder's algorithm which makes it capable of finer resolution than other feedback devices. Springs with steep force-deflection curves are difficult...
