Non-contact displacement measurements can be made rapidly and with high precision using capacitive sensors over a modest range. The main features are: Capacitive sensing is a non-contact measurement ...

The brochure presents PI’s state-of-the-art sensor systems and also features a tutorial on single plate and dual plate capacitive sensors and an applications overview: * Measuring Displacement with ...

Touchstone Semiconductor's Martin Tomasz explains how to interfact to capacitive touch sensors using basic 555-timer circuits.

Engineers need to know the technology and limitations behind the available sensors if they want to make the right choice.

The brochure presents PI’s sensor systems and also features a tutorial on single plate and dual plate capacitive sensors and an applications overview.

Sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon UK has just launched a new range of non-contact, wear-free capacitive displacement measurement sensors, which offer extremely high performance (resolution and speed), ...

Two sensor plates – a target and a probe – form a parallel-plate capacitor, with the spacing of the plates measured using an electronic controller. Measurement ranges from 20 µm to 1250 µm are ...

We are therefore able to produce a single or multiple sensor channel arrangement in one sensor body,” he adds. Custom capacitive sensors As well as eddy current sensors, Micro-Epsilon has also ...

It is specially designed for measuring internal diameters in extruder housings from 32 to 180 mm. The system offers unsurpassed accuracy due to measurements using capacitive displacement sensors.

The LVDT is a natural contender for high-temperature applications when compared to other displacement technologies such as potentiometers, magnetostrictive transducers, and capacitive sensors.
