Capacitive technique for rotary displacement
The RCDT rotary displacement sensor provides a high accuracy, no friction solution to accurate rotational measurement of a shaft, through application of patented capacitive, non-contact techniques
High accuracy robust LVDTs
RDP Electronics can provide solutions to nearly all gauging sensor requirements using robust miniature LVDTs, accurate to microns in working ranges from 0.25mm to 12.7mm
In this issue, you will see an example of a low-cost strain measurement system based on the RDP 600 series multi-channel data acquisition and freeware for a PC to display and analyse the data; a practical application for the RDP new submersible displacement transducers, and a new section entitled "Did you know that?" with helpful tips from the RDP technical team.
Established users of RDP products, BKAutomation of Southampton, open their doors to describe a recent application for RDP LVDTs and amplifiers in a pipe assembly machine they were commissioned to build for a client.
The machine produces five variants of high-pressure pipe used for turbo chargers in the automotive industry and the RDP solution ensures repeatable quality during assembly.
Continuing a regular educational theme in this issue, "Understanding Accuracy" explores the implications of temperature coefficients, and there is also an update of information from RDP available on the internet.
"Transducer Action" is available free on request from the sales department. Request free introductory details about products from RDP Electronics ...
