Position Transducers use Indres(R) inductive technology.

TLC Series supports measuring lengths from 100 to 1000 mm. Output voltage is proportional to position of probe moving near, but not touching, 2 resistive tracks that are inductively coupled. Integrated ASIC provides linearization and filtering for resolution better than 0.01 mm. Rodless design, with ball coupling, accommodates side loads. Sensors operate at speeds to 10 msec with repeatability...

Quadrature Output Option connects to motion-based systems.

Absolute Quadrature output option is available for Micropulse(R) BTL-Z rod-style linear displacement transducers. It interfaces directly to standard encoder inputs (90 deg out-of-phase, A and B), and provides absolute position information upon request. It operates in synchronous or free-running modes. Output carries selectable position resolution (1, 2, 5, 10 micron or 0.001, 0.0001 in.) and...

Position Sensors work for 100 million cycles.

LWH real time sensors provide position information with no update time delays or dead zones. There is no minimum velocity requirement, so position information is available to controllers during machine startups and stops. It provides repeatability of 0.0004 in. and linearity to +/- 0.04%, operates at speeds up to 10 m/s, and is available in stroke lengths of 75 to 900 mm. Sensor mounting snaps on...

A Guide to Quality Control of the SMT Process

The printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing process begins with cutting-edge equipment capable of accurately picking and placing up to 40,000 components per hour. This innovative equipment keeps error rates extremely low, and those defects that do occur are quickly caught by sensitive laser and optical inspection equipment.
