Carbon fiber composites are becoming increasingly important, especially in the automotive industry and its Tier 1 suppliers. The use of carbon fiber in industry has doubled in the last five years and is forecast to quadruple by 2030.
A few years ago, products containing only carbon fiber were very niche and expensive. Today, however, many body shells are made of carbon fiber or in part. This information is being used more and more frequently in the roof, hood and accessories. Carbon fiber is also used in vehicle interiors, for example in the interior of the doors, center console and backrest.
In addition to the automotive industry, carbon fiber is also used in the wind power industry to improve the aerodynamic function of the blades, which together guarantee satisfactory rigidity. Another area where carbon fiber is used is in the production of sports equipment such as bicycles or canoes. Depending on the type of sensor or the composite data, most conventional inductive sensors cannot reliably detect carbon fibers. However, Turck's new product range is able to reliably detect such data.
These sensors can be used in the production of parts to detect carbon fibers or pads in molds. Of course, the sensors can also be used in the further processing of carbon fiber parts. The detection of loose carbon fiber pads is particularly useful for suppliers at all levels. In automotive production, the inspection of pressed finished products is very important.
Key Features and Benefits:
Three housing plans for the carbon fiber detection sensor will be the first to be released. We will supply the cylindrical threaded M18 stainless steel housing. and the square CK40 and QR20 housings, which have a high additional detection interval and flexible device versatility, and CK40 products can achieve an additional detection interval of up to 40 mm. All products have PNP complementary output, which makes the product more versatile and reduces the cost of stocking.
These devices, based on Uprox skills, offer customers well-known advantages such as maximum device freedom and an extended temperature range (0 for carbon fiber detection sensors). 100°C）。 In addition, all devices have an IP68 rating. All sensors have an M12 plug-in connection. We have now applied for the enhanced skills based on Uprox, which means that we can be more satisfied with the use of the needs.

Characteristics and Measurement Mechanism of Torque Transducers - Turck
1. Determination mechanism
The commonly used torsional strain gauge is attached to the ductile shaft to be measured with strain adhesive and forms a strain bridge, which supplies power to the strain bridge. The electrical signal of torsion on the elastic shaft is immediately determined. After the strain signal is enlarged, it is changed to the positive and negative parts of the torsional strain after the voltage/frequency change.

Static properties of sensors – Turck
The static characteristics of a sensor refer to the correlation between the output and input of the sensor for the static input signal. Since neither the input nor the output is moment-independent, the relationship between them, i.e., the static properties of the sensor, can be used as an algebra without the moment variables.
