The fast update rate option, available for SSI and EtherCAT® protocols, fulfills high, dynamic requirements by shortening the cycle time for a measured value so the controller can read the absolute ...

They are installed not only in electrical linear motors, but also in pneumatic, hydraulic, ball-screw or power-grip belt drives and wherever high-accuracy, dynamic positioning tasks must be performed.

This application note provides guidelines for selecting a magnet to be used in combination with the MLX90333 Triaxis 3D-Joystick Position Sensor when it is desired to apply this IC as a Linear ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

How do extended temperatures affect sensors? How can I protect my sensors from extended temperatures? How do magnetostrictive sensors work? What are the advantages of magnetostrictive sensors? Machine ...

Here’s a guide to evaluating and using the latest generation of 3D magnetic sensors, which offer a higher-accuracy alternative to existing 1D Hall-effect sensors. Linear magnetic sensing is becoming ...
