LVDT vs digital measuring sensor: What’s the difference?
05.12.2022 - Just like a digital measuring sensor, the linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) is a mechanical measurement sensor. They both record geometric... [more]
Position and presence detection of seals using digital gauges
16.11.2022 - The correct position of seals in design components is crucial for a perfect fit. Seals often differ in material, colour and surface characteristics. This is a considerable challenge for sensors that measure distance... [more]
Distance measurement with laser sensor technology
12.07.2022 - Laser sensors (also optoelectronic sensors) are used in many fields of industry and research, to measure distances reliably and quickly. In doing so, triangulation, runtime measurement or... [more]
Draw-wire sensors in waste management
29.03.2022 - Draw-wire sensors from WayCon still provide measurement results after more than 10 years under extreme conditions. The sensor is exposed to highly aggressive media 24 hours a day, where other sensors would have had to be replaced long ago. In addition to the outstanding sealing of... [more]
