Digital displacement sensor
A sensor that directly
converts linear displacement or angular displacement into a digital electrical
signal output corresponding to it.
It has advantages of high
accuracy, large measuring range (length can reach more than several meters,
angle can be within 360 degrees), easy installation, simple use and
maintenance, good reliability, easy automation and digitization, etc. Commonly
used digital displacement sensors include grating type, magnetic grating type,
induction synchronizer, laser type, encoder, etc.
