Top resolution for position transducers

A SpaceAge Control product story
Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Mar 12, 2002

Series D60, D61 and D62 digital-output position transducers from SpaceAge Control offer measurement ranges up to 1095mm.

Series D60, D61 and D62 digital-output position transducers from SpaceAge Control offer measurement ranges up to 1095mm.

The products deliver extended-life, high-reliability linear position measurement with digital output and a variety of resolutions.

The units are claimed to be the highest-resolution string encoders available in the world.

Initial applications for the products include machine control, medical device feedback and robotic control.

The flexible and space-efficient products use a stainless-steel cable wound around a threaded machined aluminium drum.

The bearing-mounted drum is mated to a precision incremental encoder that translates linear position information to a digital electrical signal.

This transducer technology gives high precision, easy installation, and compact size.

The products may be quickly mounted using a standard rotatable mounting base or a variety of optional mounting hardware.
