THE MAGNETOSTRICTIVE SOLUTION Constant and systematic is the activity of researching and innovating in order to improve and optimize the performance of the position sensors with magnetostrictive technology. These are the main characteristics of ONDA: - a simplified sensing element that allows to further reduce the transducer dimensions - a simple and modular structure in order to obtain a greater reliability and ease maintenance - unique solutions which guarantee maximum performance in its class. Patented by Gefran, ONDA is the sensing element which was designed with the target to simplify...

POSITION TRANSDUCERS STROKE LENGTH: UP TO 4000 mm When choosing a transducer, it is important to remember that two different strokes exist: - Mechanical stroke: the actual shift that the transducer’s cursor is able to make; - Useful electrical stroke: the part of the mechanical stroke in which transducer linearity is guaranteed. Therefore, when designing an application, you should choose a transducer with a useful electrical stroke that is equal to or greater than the maximum displacement carried out by the moving part. TYPES OF ACTUATORS In order to measure the displacement of an object,...
