Here at Positek, we have an extensive range of linear position sensors. Our patented inductive sensor technology means our position sensors are very robust and accurate when detecting linear movement of up to 800mm.
Our Linear Position Sensors are a perfect non-contacting alternative to a linear potentiometer and are suitable for detecting linear movement in a wide variety of industrial applications.
Positek's linear position sensing technology is similar to that of an LVDT but with more reliability and improved stroke to length ratio as well as being more suitable for confined spaces. They are also less likely to fracture or break due to the single-coil operation.
During the 30s Linear Position Sensors were only ever found within lab measuring applications. Since then the use of position sensors has become an integral part of the industrial, mechanical and research industries.
Linear position sensors are commonly used in the air, on the ground, underground and often underwater as well as a feedback device.
Some specific applications include:
We offer a range of options when it comes to linear position sensors. We can be specific with the sensor’s movement, measurement range and type, hazardous approvals, intrinsic safety requirements and environment sealings.
A lot of manufacturers are not able to offer bespoke solutions, at Positek we have the benefit of offering our customers assistance from our engineering team to create custom specifications with lead times as short as 2 working days.
Our Linear position sensors use a thin type of inductive coil that has a thin pattern guide. Because of its size, it is suitable for space-restricted applications. Most commonly found linear sensors are now compact and robust. Our technology consists of using just one coil which makes them less prone to damage.
We use our own non-contacting technology which means our sensors are manufactured with high-quality materials and using advanced methods. We have quality certifications that show our dedication to being a frontrunner in manufacturing and distributing Linear Position Sensors as well as the other product categories we offer.
All of our linear position sensors can be seen above. If you require more information or want to discuss your requirements, please contact us.
As well as linear position sensors we also offer rotary position sensors and other sensors from our sister companies. Take a look at our full product range here.
