A linear variable differential transformer, or LVDT, is a series of inductors in a hollow cylindrical shaft and a solid cylindrical core. The LVDT produces an electrical output proportional to the position of the core. The LVDT may be used in many different types of measuring devices that need to convert changes in physical position to an electrical output, including LVDT position sensors. The lack of friction between the hollow shaft and the core prolong the life of the LVDT and enable very good resolution. In addition, the small mass of the core allows for good sensitivity in dynamic tests. |

Cable Extension Linear Position Sensors
Cable extension linear position sensors are used to measure the movement and displacement of objects. A cable or wire is attached to an object, and as the object moves, the transducer produces an electrical signal proportional to the wire's linear extension.
Photoelectric Sensors
Photoelectric sensors use emitters and receivers to detect the presence, absence, or distance of target objects.
