Linear inductive displacement sensors - MICRO EPSILON - #4

Text version of the page

04 Typical applications for inductive displacement and position sensors Sensors are the eyes and ears of a technical system. The values or states you acquire are processed in the controller or evaluated and appropriate further steps initiated. With the aid of sensors the measurement object is deflected, moved, set, guided, bent, panned, positioned, tilted, displaced or centered. The following overview shows a small extract of the possibilities for the application of the product group induSENSOR. With inductive sensors in applications, process times are shortened, operational readiness is extended, operational safety is increased, production yield is improved, setting up times are shortened and there is a gain in convenience. Construction Automotive Facility management Household appliances Hydraulics Measurement systems Medical engineering Production plants Process technology Inspection and testing systems Quality control Machine tools Quality control and dimensional inspection Inductive gaging sensors measure the geometry of work-pieces in quality assurance and production. The dimensions for inspection are acquired in appropriate inspection rigs and documented. Gaging sensors and other sensors are employed for the calibration of the robot axes and for the determination of the gripping span. Furthermore, with vision4A image processing systems the position of the handling object in space is acquired. The deflection of the probe tip in 3D coordinate machines is compensated using inductive sensors from Micro-Epsilon.
