A displacement sensor (displacement gauge) is used to calculate the distance between an object and a reference position. Displacement sensors can be used to determine an object’s height, thickness, and width, as well as its travel range. Disadvantages of displacement transducers:
These transducers must be permanently mounted. This is always costly, and in some situations, impossible. The frequency range is relatively restricted to 0 Hz to 1,000 Hz. A semiconductor laser is used in displacement sensors. The laser light is focussed through the emitting lens and projected onto an object. At that point, some of the light beam reflected from the item generates a light spot on the position sensor device. When an object moves, so does the PSD.
The Global Wireless Load Displacement Sensor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
THE WIRELESS LINEAR DISPLACEMENT TRANSDUCER IS NOW AVAILABLE FROM STRAIGHTPOINT. Construction and other professionals can now use Straightpoint products with the Wireless Linear Displacement Transducer to measure force, load, and distance (WLDT).
The tool is available in stroke lengths ranging from 25mm (1 in.) to 200mm (8 in.) and may accurately detect displacement or movement in a wide range of construction, civil engineering, aerospace, and other industries. “There are many cases when an end user is measuring force or load and also wants to quantify distance,” said SP director David Ayling. “For example, they could want to know how high something has been jacked up or how much a building has shifted.”
When utilised appropriately, the WLDT is a robust, perfectly linear position/displacement transducer with a mean time between failures (MTBF) in excess of 100 million cycles. With an eye at each end of the transducer, the sensor may be quickly and precisely positioned and connected to SP’s Multiple Wireless Load Cell Controller (SW-MWLC) software package. It also includes SP’s SA700C wireless transmitter.
Ayling emphasised two product aspects, in addition to its appeal as a wireless versus cabled solution: plug-and-play functionality and compatibility with SP’s acclaimed software. As a result, it is appropriate for civil engineers, positioning control applications, R&D testing, lifting or spreader beam testing, aerospace system integration, and hydraulic or jacking activities.
