Murata says it has developed the world’s most precise rotary position sensors providing +/- 1% linearity and will start mass producing them in April. In recent years, electronic control has achieved ...

Rotary sensors can help determine the position of a moveable body in relation to an axis. They are essential to the smooth running of car engines in the automotive industry, for example. Researchers ...

UniMeasure Inc, a leading manufacturer of position and velocity sensors based in Corvallis, Oregon, has expanded its portfolio of rotary position sensing solutions to meet the increasing demand for ...

The MLX90316 is a CMOS Hall Sensor that gives the angular position of a magnetic field parallel to the IC surface. It is designed for contactless rotary position of a magnetic field parallel to the IC ...

Cambridge Integrated Circuits has introduced a non-contact rotary position sensing IC that can operate at 66,000rpm producing 1,000 quadrature cycles per revolution, or can work at resolutions up to ...

Promising ease of installation in industrial applications, the M85 Thin-Line rotary sensors employ the company's Wide-Gap and Edge-Guard sensor technologies. Wide-Gap technology eliminates the need ...

With a shaft that rotates a full 360° with no stops and virtually no friction, the AC-operated rotary position sensors measure shaft angle position over a nominal range of ±30°. Sensors are available ...

A while back we featured a magnetic rotary encoder that [LongHairedHacker] designed. The heart of the system is an AS5043 magnetic rotary sensor which runs from $6.5-$11 and has a 10 bits precision.

Other noncontact magnetism-based sensors go beyond potentiometric sensors using resistance-based track-and-wiper techniques. However, they still require that a shaft be attached to the sensor’s ...

Piher Sensors & Controls has introduced the MTS-360 Mechanical Mount Rotary Position Sensor with integral PCB for fast and easy mounting. Designed with the sensor directly mounted onto a PCB, the ...

The rotary inductive sensors utilize resistance inductive capacitance (RLC) measuring technology, rather than a traditional magnetic positioning element—delivering complete immunity to EMC ...

The Vert-X 22E Series of programmable, touchless rotary position sensors use a magnetic pickup that is secured to the rotating object so there is no direct mechanical link between the shaft and ...
