Products/Services for position sensor
Linear position sensors is a general search form for all linear position / displacement detection product areas. Search by Specification | Learn More about Linear Position Sensors
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
Optical triangulation position sensors use reflected waves to pinpoint position and displacement. The source of these waves may be a light emitting diode (LED), infrared (IR) light, or laser. Search by Specification | Learn More about Optical Triangulation Position Sensors
Magnetoresistive linear position sensors and switches have a linear resistance output signal representing the distance an object is from a reference point. Search by Specification | Learn More about Magnetoresistive Linear Position Sensors and Switches
Eddy current linear position sensors detect the distance from a target by using magnetic fields generated by a reference and sensing coils. Search by Specification | Learn More about Eddy Current Linear Position Sensors
Variable reluctance linear position sensors and switches are noncontact devices that use variable reluctance based technology, and whose output signal represents the distance between an object and a reference point. Search by Specification | Learn More about Variable Resistance Linear Position Sensors and Switches
Magnetostrictive position sensors are non-contact linear position sensors that use the momentary interaction of two magnetic fields to produce a strain pulse that moves along a waveguide. One field is from a magnet that moves along the outside of the waveguide. The other field is from the waveguide itself. Search by Specification | Learn More about Magnetostrictive 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
Capacitive linear position sensors are devices that sense position / displacement using capacitance technology. Search by Specification | Learn More about Capacitive Linear Position Sensors
Fiber optic linear position sensors use fiber optic technology to sense position and displacement. Search by Specification | Learn More about Fiber Optic Linear Position Sensors
Hall effect position sensors are non-contact devices that convert energy from a magnetic field into an electrical signal. They use the Hall effect, a voltage caused by current-flow in the presence of a magnetic field. Search by Specification | Learn More about Hall Effect Position Sensors
Position probes measure the position of a target surface, usually with a high degree of accuracy. This search form covers many different linear position products. Search by Specification | Learn More about Position Probes
Ultrasonic linear position sensors and switches use ultrasonic waves in combination with light and frequency readings for position and displacement sensing. Search by Specification | Learn More about Ultrasonic Linear Position Sensors and Switches
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
Cable extension linear position sensors are used to measure the movement and displacement of objects. A cable or wire is attached to an object, and as the object moves, the transducer produces an electrical signal proportional to the wire's linear extension. Search by Specification | Learn More about Cable Extension Linear Position Sensors
