Measurement solutions

Today, vehicles must prove their suitability for later use in the first stages of development. At the same time, not only are aspects such as functionalities tested, but also factors including stability, expansion, vibrations and many other things are assessed. The extensive use of measurement technology in the development phase often provides new perceptions and helps to design safer and more comfortable vehicles. In this area, measurement technology expert Micro-Epsilon provides intelligent solutions for automotive applications.

Sensors that deliver

Eddy current displacement sensors are one of the main pillars of non-contact industrial measurement technology, being used to measure distances, displacements or positions of any electrically conductive target. The principle offers many advantages that no other procedure can replicate. The conventional sensor design is now being supported by new developments in materials and components. This makes handling these sensitive sensors easier, while extending the number of applications.

Automatic determination of coil diameter

The automation of rolling mills, strip treatment plant and handling processes can no longer be imagined without the use of non-contact measurement technology. Besides the width and coil weight, the coil diameter is one of the most important items of production information.Coil diameter is used not only for the finished coil, but also for the production speed control or as a criterion indicating the approach of a coil end. Optical systems, with the help of which position and distance can also be measured, work particularly accurately and reliably.

Measuring distances by rope

Draw-wire sensors, rope length gauges, rope length transmitters or string pots are just some of the names of the widespread forms of displacement measurement sensors, all of which are based on a principle like that of the household tape measure.

Porovnání snímačů posunu (2)

V tomto seriálu článků porovnáváme různé měřící principy na měření posunu a vzdálenosti. Předcházející část se věnovala snímačům využívajícím vířivé proudy. Druhá část se věnuje kapacitním snímačům. Oba dva typy jsou klasifikované jako elektromagnetické snímače. Druhá část také vysvětluje měřící princip a poukazuje na to, kdy jsou kapacitní snímače tou správnou volbou.
