New Product - Tiny 3mm Capacitance Displacement Probe
St. Paul, MN February, 12 2003
Lion Precision has released a 3mm diameter noncontact, capacitance displacement probe. Designed with the smallest possible profile, it is ideal for applications with very small areas available for gage heads. The probe was developed in response to demand from the disk drive and semi-conductor industries for high-resolution position measurement in tight quarters. The probe maintains the same high-performance specifications as its larger counterparts. The 3mm probe works with all of the company's driver electronics options and is available with both axial and right angle cable exits.
