If you build engines, tune cars, or even just like mashing your foot on the throttle with conviction, you’ve probably heard ...

In the field of automation, a very popular choice for prime mover duties is the pneumatic cylinder. Pneumatic cylinders carry many advantages in terms of relatively low first cost, application ...

Alliance Sensors Group is pleased to announce the MR Series of Linear Position Sensors for use in measuring the ram position of hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. The MR Series is designed to be a ...

The MK51xx miniature magnetic sensors use giant magnetoresistive (GMR) technology to provide very high sensitivity for sensing the open/closed status of pneumatic cylinders. The 25-mm-long units fit ...

Cylinder-position sensors are used in pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders. They determine the home and end stroke of the piston head within the cylinder. The difficulty lies in detecting the position of ...

Pneumatics is generally preferred for applications such as material handling, transporting parts, pick-and-place operations, and small-parts assembly. But, until recently, pneumatic systems were ...

As the demand for greater control and functionality increases, position-sensor-instrumented hydraulic cylinders are becoming more important in the heavy industry, mobile equipment, and subsea worlds.

The MPS (Magnetic Positioning Sensor) and the MZT8 Magnetic Cylinder Sensor enable cost-effective and accurate solutions for piston detection. The MPS is a non-contact linear measurement solution with ...
