Eddy current sensor counts revs for turbos
A miniature eddy current sensor system is helping leading manufacturers of turbochargers monitor the speed of turbocharger units up to 400,000rev/min.
Optical encoder aids pipework alignment
The OMC Pipe Profiler is designed to determine the dimension of pipe ends using an optical triangulation technique to estimate the distance to the surface of the pipe without touching it.
The site is now "application-led" rather than "product-led".
Rather than placing lists of different sensor products in front of engineers, the new site encourages users to look for answers to their specific application problems.
The site also boasts a new search engine, which ensures users are instantly taken to the right application, information or product they are looking for.
The applications area of the site contains sensor systems for bending, concentricity, diameter, dimension, displacement, positioning, oscillation, gap, revolution, stroke and thickness measurement.
Actual examples of applications in each of these areas is provided, along with the relevant technical data sheet and application diagrams.
Details of specific customer applications are provided on the site.
Examples include: monitoring the vacuum integrity of cans, jars and bottles; turbocharger speed sensing; monitoring of the commutators in electric motors; thickness measurement of yarn, rubber film, foils and battery separators; flatness measurement in rolling mills; oil film thickness measurement in internal combustion engines; calibrating robot axes; measuring clutch wear in racing cars; active damping of liquid-cooled centrifuges; lift height measurement in forklift trucks; monitoring the clamping of tools; and the measurement of axial deformation of brake disc friction rings.
