Torque sensors, gauges, instruments, and switches are used to measure torque in a variety of applications. Search by Specification | Learn More about Torque Sensors

...to use. Fixed instruments are fixed or used in one place, for example, benchtop, panel mount etc. Modular instruments have different modules for interfacing to different sensors or input ranges. Tachometers can have batteries for full operation... Search by Specification | Learn More about Tachometers

Incremental rotary encoders are multi-turn sensors that use optical, mechanical, or magnetic index-counting for angular measurement. They contain no absolute reference, but instead count relative to the turn-on position. Search by Specification | Learn More about Incremental Rotary Encoders

Rotary encoder disks are round or disk-shaped and have evenly-spaced holes or markings around their perimeter. Learn More about Rotary Encoder Disks

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 Search by Specification | Learn More about Absolute Rotary Encoders

Hall effect proximity sensors are used to detect the proximity, presence or absence of a magnetic object using a critical distance. Search by Specification | Learn More about Hall Effect Proximity Sensors

Tilt sensors, switches and inclinometers generate an artificial horizon and measure angular tilt with respect to this horizon. They are used in cameras, aircraft flight controls, automobile security systems, and special switches. Search by Specification | Learn More about Tilt Sensors, Switches and Inclinometers

Sensor transmitters are measurement or signal conditioning packages that provide a standard, calibrated output from a sensor or transducer in the form of a current loop output (e.g., 4-20 mA). Search by Specification | Learn More about Sensor Transmitters

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

Fiber optic rotary joints (FORJ) are the optical equivalent of electrical slip rings. They allow uninterrupted transmission of an optical signal while rotating along the fiber axis. Learn More about Fiber Optic Rotary Joints

...the change in state of the magnetic field generated by a ferromagnetic material. Magnetoresistive linear encoders are made of nickel-iron thin-film on a silicon wafer and formed as a resistive strip. They are more sensitive than Hall effect sensors...

Rotary limit switches use physically-actuated levers to rotate a shaft and operate the contacts in a switch, making them change state. Search by Specification | Learn More about Rotary Limit Switches

Collision sensors are used to protect robots from colliding with other objects. Noncontact sensors are used to help robots avoid these collisions. Search by Specification | Learn More about Collision Sensors

Magnetic speed sensors rely on a magnet as the sensing element or sensed target to capture rotational or linear speed. They are typically used as gear tooth speed sensors or incorporated into stroboscopes or tachometers. Search by Specification | Learn More about Magnetic Speed Sensors
