Meggitt Sensing Systems has introduced the Endevco model 7298 triaxial, variable capacitance accelerometer designed for highly accurate measurement of low-frequency events.
SICK has extended its range with new Inox and hygienic sensors and mountings that protect against contamination in the most demanding environments. The W4S-3H photoelectric sensor combined with a compact and rugged IP69K housing withstands washdown, cleaning and disinfection regimes.
As rotational speeds increase, electric motor and generator manufacturers need a reliable and versatile method of measuring torque accurately for both product development and quality control in production and assembly applications.
A non-contact laser for fast, high-performance gauging has been introduced by Ametek Solartron Metrology. The new Orbit LTH laser triangulation unit offers 2 or 10mm measurement ranges, yielding an accuracy of up to .05µm with the 2mm stroke.
Mantracourt Electronics’ miniature load cell and strain gauge amplifier (ICA4S) was chosen as a key component in a project to build a drill that recently extracted a 763m ice core from the Ross Ice Shelf in western Antarctica.
