When it comes to position detection of machine tools, you usually think of using a grating scale to control the CNC spindle. This type of sensor principle is the most commonly used in modern machine tools and can even achieve sub-micron resolution. However, there are many other applications in metalworking that do not necessarily require such high-end and ...

The sensor converts the physical quantity to be measured into an electrical signal and processes this electrical signal so that it can be easily transmitted and processed. In addition, the sensor can detect the presence or absence of an object (binary sensor). Or the sensor outputs the measured value (analog/digital sensor ...)

According to the National Bureau of Statistics, in the first half of this year, China's crude steel output was 527 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 6.5%; pig iron output was 439 million tons, down 4.7% year-on-year; Steel output was 667 million tons, down 4.6% year-on-year. The data shows that in the first half of the year, market demand was lower than expected, and steel ...

Photoelectric sensors are sensors that use optoelectronic components as detection elements. It first converts the measured change into a change in the optical signal, and then further converts the optical signal into an electrical signal with the help of an optoelectronic component. Photoelectric sensors are generally composed of three parts: light source, optical path and optoelectronic components.
