Pressure sensors and accelerometers are moving toward capacitive sensing. And, capacitive displacement ... linear regulator. Sometimes it’s not possible to co-locate the sensor and the ...

Schaevitz Technologies Inc. Pennsauken, N.J. Engineers continue to increase their use of linear-position and displacement ... measuring ranges from about 0.1 to 20 in. (2.5 to 500 mm). Capacitive ...

Capacitive Sensors perform high-precision, non-contact measurements of geometric quantities representing displacement, separation, position, length or other linear dimension against any kind of ...

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 ...

based on the principle of capacitance micrometry. Two sensor plates – a target and a probe – form a parallel-plate capacitor, with the spacing of the plates measured using an electronic controller.

wear-free capacitive displacement measurement sensors, which offer extremely high performance (resolution and speed), making them ideal for use within production plants for in-process quality ...

The linear variable-differential transformer, or LVDT, first saw use in laboratory measurements ... displacement technologies such as potentiometers, magnetostrictive transducers, and capacitive ...
