Force Sensor

Force sensors are transducers that transform mechanical input forces like weight, tension, compression, torque, strain, stress, or pressure into an electrical output signal whose value can be used to represent the force’s magnitude. To notify operators or act as inputs for controlling machinery and processes, the signals may be delivered to indicators, controllers, or computers. … Continue reading Force Sensor

Position Sensor

As their name implies, the Position Sensor detects the position of something, meaning they are referenced either to or from some fixed point or position. These types of sensors provide “positional” feedback.  One method of determining a position, is to use either “distance”, which could be the distance between two points such as the distance… Continue reading Position Sensor
