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
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 MoreLinear 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 MoreMagnetic proximity sensors include devices that work on inductive, variable reluctance, magneto resistive or Hall effect principles. Proximity sensors detect the presence or absence of an object using a critical distance
Search by Specification | Learn MoreVariable 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 MoreFiber optic proximity sensors use fiber optic technology to detect the proximity of target objects
Search by Specification | Learn MoreMagnetostrictive 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 MoreElectric linear actuators have an output rod that provides linear motion via a motor driven ball screw, lead screw, or ACME screw assembly. The actuator's load is attached to the end of a screw or rod and is often unsupported
Search by Specification | Learn MoreGearmotors consist of an AC or DC motor with an integral gearbox or gear head that steps delivered speed up or down.
Search by Specification | Learn MoreDC motors are most commonly used in variable speed and torque applications. They include brushless and gear motors, as well as servomotors.
Search by Specification | Learn MorePredictive maintenance (PdM) and condition monitoring systems are used to predict equipment maintenance, and to monitor corrosion, oil condition, bearing wear, overheating and other parameters than can lead to the breakdown of capital equipment.
Learn MoreMotor controllers receive supply voltages and provide signals to motor drives that are interfaced to motors. They include a power supply, amplifier, user interface, and position control circuitry.
Search by Specification | Learn MoreStepper motors use a magnetic field to move a rotor in small angular steps or fractions of steps. They provide precise positioning and ease of use, especially in low acceleration or static load applications
Search by Specification | Learn MorePiezoelectric devices generate electrical signals in response to vibrations and produce mechanical energy in response to electrical signals. Device types include actuators, motors, sensors, and transducers
Search by Specification | Learn MoreShock absorbers, linear dampers, and dashpots provide motion damping in linear applications. They frequently incorporate fluid dampening, and can include mechanical or elastomeric elements
