Several applications require a through shaft which prevents from using the basic principle which is angular position measurement using variation of magnetic field amplitude induced by the displacement ...

Able to handle temperatures from –40° to 165°C and the harsh environment of automotive applications, a Hall-effect sensor module can detect the position of a rotating shaft. The device can operate in ...

In the field of automation, a motion control system consists of mechanical hardware coupled to a prime mover, the operation of which is governed by a computerized controller that compares the command ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In the seemingly endless quest for higher motor performance and improved system cost efficiencies, motor manufacturers ...

Noncontact magnetic rotary encoders are hard to beat when it comes to measuring rotary motion in machinery, as they are relatively small, strong, and inexpensive devices compared to traditional ...

Your crankshaft position sensor is small but mighty—without it, your engine can’t start or run right. Learning to test, diagnose, and interpret its signals can save hours of guesswork. From waveform ...

A new advance in vibration monitoring, developed with EPRI, facilitates the measurement of torsional vibration and is expected to be of significant value to power plants relying on a wide range of ...
