Case Study: Sensor Operating in Crosrol Textile Carding Machine

From Everight Position Technologies Corporation
 

 
To control the tension on a delicate bundle of cotton fibres as passing through processes at high speed requires a sensor that can measure very small angles with high resolution over a long time. The cotton fibre does not have a very consistent cross section as it is drawn through
Products & Services
Linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) linear position sensors have a series of inductors in a hollow cylindrical shaft and a solid cylindrical core. These devices produce an electrical output proportional to the position of the core Search by Specification | Learn more about LVDT Linear Position Sensors
Inductive linear position sensors and switches are noncontact devices that determine an object's coordinates (linear or angular) with respect to a reference. Search by Specification | Learn more about Inductive Linear Position Sensors and Switches
Absolute rotary encoders use optical, mechanical, or magnetic indexing for angular measurement. They do not lose their position after power-down, but instead provide absolute position upon power-up without requiring a home cycle or any shaft rotation.

Rotary position sensors include potentiometers, resolvers and a variety of magnetic and capacitive technologies. Sensors are designed for angular displacement less than one turn or for multiturn displacement. Search by Specification | Learn more about Rotary Position Sensors
Linear encoders sense and digitize linear position change for positional measurement and feedback to control systems. Search by Specification | Learn more about Linear Encoders
