Sensor Technology: Measuring torque on rotating shafts on a test rig is one thing, but the environmental challenges of real world applications can quickly impact on the functionality and reliability of torque transducers, as Mark Ingham of Sensor...

Kistler: The use of spark plugs in cylinder pressure measurement has the major advantage of avoiding the need to form an additional bore. It exploits the means of access to the combustion chamber already provided by the plug, which then serves a...

Micro-Epsilon: In order to minimise positioning errors in machine tools, the eddy current sensor SGS 4701 measures the thermal extension of high-frequency spindles. The spindle is at the heart of a machine tool and so plays a decisive role in the...

Micro-Epsilon: In wind turbines, the bearing gap is very important because the better the sliding properties, the higher the plant effectiveness and service life. The bearing gap between the bearing surface and the drive shaft is reliably...

Waycon: Draw-wire sensors (also known as wire-actuated encoders) are extremely versatile in agriculture and help to carry out precise measurements of position, length and distance. Draw-wire sensors are measuring systems that convert the linear...

Micro-Epsilon: In the production of battery cells, films are coated continuously or intermittently. The film thickness and the coating thickness represent a process-critical measurement parameter. Precise thicknessGAUGE measuring systems from...

Micro-Epsilon: During surface finishing of strip material, the color sensor system used must meet high requirements in terms of precision and speed. In order to detect color shades with an accuracy of ΔE <0.1, the colorCONTROL ACS7000...

ETLG Inertial Aerosystems: Tilt sensing ensures that infrastructure operates with safety and efficiency. But since these readings are so subtle and important, designers minimize induced errors. Vibration can be the enemy for precision tilt sensors...

Sensor Technology: TorqSense Rotary Torque Sensors, made by Sensor Technology Ltd, are unlike traditional slip ring transducers. They use a simple non-contact radio link for collecting real-time torque signals, letting machine builders and control...

greenTEG AG: Windows play an important role in the overall insulation of a building, as they are responsible for up to 20% of heat losses during winter. Therefore, replacing poorly insulated windows with windows of the latest standard can...

Sensor Technology: If precise mixing is a crucial process variable, viscosity measurement may be the most accurate way to ensure optimum performance. But rotating mixers can lead to very tangled wiring, so here Mark Ingham of Sensor Technology Ltd...

Turck has added spring arms and measuring wheels to its encoder portfolio, thus offering a reliable solution for measuring linear moving objects. The freely combinable spring arms and measuring wheel systems enable the measurement of lengths and...

Dytran Instruments, Inc. a leading manufacturer of piezoelectric and DC MEMS sensors presents Model 3168D2 for HUMS and flight test applications. This innovative sensor is a single-axis IEPE quartz accelerometer with a thru-hole design for 360-degree...

ES Systems: Sensors nowadays are used in a growing number of products, including medical devices. The need to keep medical products sterile, free of harmful contaminants such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, and spore forms, is a particular challenge....
