Website focuses on applications
A
Micro-Epsilon UK product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
Mar 30, 2006
The Micro-Epsilon website has a new application-focused structure that makes it easier for engineers to locate the sensor or measurement solution they require.
Micro-Epsilon has relaunched its website with a host of new functions and technical information, plus a new application-focused structure that makes it easier for engineers to locate the sensor or measurement solution they require.
The website is targeted at design engineers, production engineers, quality and inspection engineers, scientists, lab technicians and plant/maintenance engineers.
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.
