Of course, many different types of distance measuring sensors exist but not all sensors are the same. Each sensor has its own advantages and disadvantages. At its most basic level, a distance ...

A new photoelectric distance sensor in the R200 series uses Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) for precise distance measurement up to 60 m. With this technology, the R200 achieves a repeat accuracy of ≤ 3 ...

The FC-03 Module The FC-03 optical speed sensor is a budget wheel encoder module broadly used for sensing a motor’s velocity. It can be connected to any 3.3V/5V microcontroller using a set of standard ...

The monitoring of rotation can involve such sensor types as proximity, photoelectric, resolvers, encoders, and tachometer generators. Most determine direction of rotation, speed, and angular position ...

AutomationDirect has expanded its photoelectric sensor offering to include OPT series short and long range distance sensors. Available with either Class 1 or Class 2 laser options, the distance ...

Machines need sensors and transmitters to operate reliably and consistently. All it takes is a small drop in air pressure or a slight jam to cause a machine to crash; these sorts of problems can often ...
