Cary, N.C. — MTS Sensors has upgraded its E-Series of Temposonics magnetostrictive position sensors by adding a gradient upload capability to its EP2 digital pulse output model. The new feature allows ...

As the demand for greater control and functionality increases, position-sensor-instrumented hydraulic cylinders are becoming more important in the heavy industry, mobile equipment, and subsea worlds.

Cary, N.C. — MTS Systems Corp. Sensors Division says it has developed the industry's smallest magnetostrictive position sensor. The new modular Temposonics C-Series linear-position sensor fits into a ...

A new, more powerful generation of a magnetostrictive sensor withstands extreme temperatures, automatically adjusts frequencies and incorporates a stronger magnet. A new, more powerful generation of a ...

New expressions are given in the present paper for the output signals and input power requirements for the three principal torque sensor designs -- the branch, cross, and solenoidal designs.

SAN ANTONIO -- Oct. 29, 2018 -- A new, more powerful generation of a patented Southwest Research Institute magnetostrictive sensor withstands extreme temperatures, automatically adjusts frequencies ...

It is often advantageous to have a single sensor monitor more than one feedback parameter. This is now possible in the case of a linear-position sensor that can track as many as 20 moving positions ...

• A single linear sensor monitors 20 positions. • Time to read 20 positions matches that of a single position. • Strokes over 5,000 mm, accuracy of ±20 μm, and resolutions of 1 μm. It is often ...

The sensors can be utilized as encoders because they offer the performance and reliability needed for dynamic closed-loop control. They provide continuous, precise position feedback that permits ...

Pipeline operators will be able to detect leaks before they occur with a Magnetostrictive Transducer (MsT) Collar developed at the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) in San Antonio, Texas. Southwest ...

The Wood-Mizer line of portable sawmills provides independent woodlot operators with a reliable, efficient means of converting logs into lumber at rates ranging from 100 to 800 board ft per hour.
