A linear position sensor is a tool for spotting movement in a straight line.
The sensor then transforms the movement into processing-ready output signals, with the format of the output signals varying depending on the application and the interface specifications.
A position sensor called a linear transducer is used to monitor movement in a linear form. In order to make the linear displacement useful to machines, they transform it into electrical impulses proportional to the displacement.
Different movements can be measured by various linear transducers.
The Global linear transducers market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The 959CT from Gemco is a reasonably priced rod-style linear displacement transducer. The sensor is made with the OEM market in mind, with a particular emphasis on sectors and markets that use hydraulic cylinders.
The 959CT is made entirely of stainless steel, making it the perfect choice for caustic applications and high-cycle machines like those used in tyre and rubber factories, bailers, plastics production, packaging, the marine industry, and any other applications requiring linear position feedback.
A reliable and precise non-contact linear displacement transducer is the 959CT. Since the housing is less than 2″ deep and has an IP68 rating, it can be installed in places where conventional rod-style transducers cannot be used or in places where customers want to make the installation and serviceability of the sensor easier.
The transducer provides absolute analogue position feedback and is accurate to 0.04% of the configurable sensing distance thanks to Gemco’s field-proven magnetostrictive technology.
