Grinding
The X-Y-Z profile of the grinding process needs an accurate position description on each moving axis. The Temposonics absolute linear position sensor is used for precise measuremen...
-
Spot Welding
Precise positioning of the welding gun to the metal sheets is done using a linear position sensor as the feedback device for the pneumatic actuator. Having a position control loop enables the w...
-
Presses
Temposonics position sensors are well suited for press applications because of the need of high performance repetitive operation under high shock lead conditions. Today, as manufacturers...
-
Plasma Cutting
Positioning of the plasma torch on the X-Y cutting table requires feedback devices that are less sensitive to electrical noise. The absolute linear position sensor uses a non-cont...
-
Machining
To maintain control of the spindle position on the Z axis of a CNC machining center, the application requires a quality linear measurement instrument, free of recalibration, maintenance and mechan...
-
Tube Bending
The positioning of the bending rolls for the desired bending radius is controlled by hydraulic cylinders equipped with absolute linear position sensors. The sensors are mounted inside t...
