A disruptive sensor for intelligent hydraulics
The Liebherr LiView is an innovative position transducer for hydraulic cylinders that uses the piston itself as a sensing element. The adoption of electronic controls into mobile equipment has led to game-changing productivity enhancements — precision excavating and grading, remote maintenance capabilities and autonomous machine operation, just to name a few. But for such systems […]
Liquid level transducer now offers temperature sensing
Rota Engineering will be featuring its newest product at IFPE in March in booth S – 82307, with its new liquid level transducer that utilizes proven Hall Effect technology which has been used successfully in linear position sensors for over 15 years. Early designs for U.S. nuclear submarine ballast tanks laid the ground work to […]
ProSense variable area mechanical flow meters for fluids and water
ProSense FG1 series mechanical variable area flow meters from AutomationDirect provide visual indication of flow rate for water or petroleum-based fluids. These meters provide ±5% full-scale accuracy and a repeatability of ±1%, important for cyclical applications requiring consistent readings. Two adjustable flow limit pointers are available to provide preset indication of high, low, or normal […]
MHP Series inductive linear position sensors for cylinders
Alliance Sensors Group, a div. of H.G. Schaevitz LLC, has expanded its in-cylinder position sensor product line to include the MHP-7 series linear inductive sensors. These compact inductive linear sensors were designed to be installed into the rear endcap of hydraulic cylinders for operation at pressures up to 5000 psig. Their 1-in. hex aluminum or […]
New wire-actuated encoder for measuring length up to 12 m
The new SG121 wire-actuated encoder from SIKO is robust, compact and flexible. It is suitable for measuring lengths up to 12 m. With its long measuring lengths and a housing that is as compact as possible, the SG121 is suitable for intralogistics, manufacturers of mobile machines, and in stationary machine construction, too. The new SG121 […]
Hydraulic cylinder sensor requires no drilling, offers easy maintenance
ASM Sensors presents a new sensor solution for hydraulic cylinders that significantly simplifies installation and maintenance: posichron EasyMount is an absolute, non-contact and wear-free linear position sensor system with measurement ranges up to 5,750 mm. The core part of the sensor solution is a strong, maintenance-free magnet fixed inside the cylinder. With this new magnet […]
Absolute safety rotary encoder offers reliable utility vehicle position detection
When angles, positions and speeds have to be detected accurately in utility vehicles, engineers are often faced with a difficult task. The rotary encoder has to be sturdy, flexible for mechanical adaptation, offer the right interface and, of course, meet the safety requirements of DIN EN ISO 13849. SIKO GmbH from Buchenbach, has extended its […]
Pure.Mobile position sensor kit for utility vehicles
Heat, cold, shock, vibration, water, mud or dust – modern mobile machines must work reliably under all kinds of conditions. To ensure this, the machines need sensors that record and provide data continuously even under the harshest conditions. To acquire and send this data, sensor specialist SIKO has developed Pure.Mobile technology and brought it onto […]
