capaNCDT CS-x These plug-in, stainless steel capacitive sensors from Micro-Epsilon measure displacement, distance and position of metallic machine parts, like rollers, in industrial environments with a resolution of up to 0.19 nanometer. Due to their modular design, the sensor systems can be retrofitted, especially for monitoring or inspection applications. For closed-loop process control, however, machine builders or specialist integrators usually install the sensors.
What’s new? The availability of seven new sensors, with measuring ranges from 0.25mm to 10mm, that can be used at temperatures up to 392 degrees Fahrenheit.
Benefits Temperature stability and precision.
