Displacement sensors are frequently used in industrial production. Also known as linear sensors, they are linear devices that utilize metal induction. Their function is to convert various measured physical quantities into electrical quantities, outputting electrical signals of varying magnitudes based on the displacement, thus determining the magnitude of the displacement. Displacement sensors have a wide range of applications, commonly used in industrial automation and construction engineering. So, what are the specific application areas of displacement sensors? Here's a sharing from Shensi Measurement & Control:
1. Applications of laser displacement sensors
Laser sensors are commonly used to measure physical quantities such as length, distance, vibration, speed, and orientation. They can also be used for flaw detection and monitoring of air pollutants.
2. Application of Angular Displacement Sensors
Geography: Landslide, avalanche.
Drilling: Precise drilling tilt control.
Civil use: dams, buildings, bridges, toys, alarms, transportation.
Train: Inclination measurement of high-speed train bogies and passenger cars.
Maritime: trim and roll control, tanker control, antenna position control.
Machinery: tilt control, large machinery alignment control, bending control, cranes.
Military applications: artillery and radar adjustment, initial position control, navigation systems, and military landing platform control.
