Displacement measurement in harsh environments achieving micrometer accuracy? Learn how eddy current sensors from Micro-Epsilon perform in challenging applications where other techniques fail.
Overview
Compared to common non-contact measurement techniques, eddy-current displacement measurement is characterized by extreme precision and measurement stability even in harsh industrial environments. In contrast to conventional sensors, Micro-Epsilon’s eddy-current sensors are resistant against pressure, vibrations, temperature and even electro-magnetic fields. The sensors can be used for displacement and position measurements even in industrial environments when sub micrometer accuracy is required.
Used in a wide range of industries, eddy current displacement sensors take measurements where many other sensors cannot. Unaffected by oil, dirt, dust and moisture they can be found on engines, test cells, machines and in production lines.
In this 30 minute webinar you will learn all about our eddy current displacement sensors, how they work, what they do and where they are used. A Q&A will follow after the main webinar giving you a chance to ask any questions you may have around the subject.
Animations and graphics will show detailed application examples and offer important tips. Additional resources such as whitepaper and slideshows with further details are provided by Micro-Epsilon.
