Sensors for displacement, distance and position

Precise sensors for distance, displacement and position measurements

Distance sensors from Micro-Epsilon are ideally suited for the precise measurement of distance, displacement, position as well as thickness. Due to their high integration capability, the sensors are used in machine building  and factory automation.

Eddy current sensor systems from Micro-Epsilon are designed for high performance non-contact measurement in harsh environments. Whether measuring displacement, position, gap or vibration, Micro-Epsilon has a huge range of sensor and controller options to solve your task.

Working in high pressures, extreme temperature, immersed in liquids or high shock and vibration, eddy current sensors are proven to remain reliable and stable in some of the most demanding environments.

The innovative white light interferometers from Micro-Epsilon set a benchmark in high-precision distance and thickness measurements. These sensors enable stable measurement results with sub-nanometre resolution offering a comparatively large measuring range and offset distance. The interferometers are available in 3 series: the IMS5400-DS for high-precision industrial distance measurements, the IMS5400-TH for accurate thickness measurements and the vacuum-suitable IMS5600-DS for distance measurements with picometre resolution.

Laser distance sensors are designed for non-contact distance measurements: laser gauges for measuring ranges up to 10m, laser distance sensors for up to 270m. These sensors are used for positioning and type classification in machine building and handling equipment.

Micro Epsilon has an extremely wide range of inductive LVDT position sensors with multiple product families, collectively known as the induSENSOR series. From simple low cost LVDT sensors to world leading customer specific solutions, all can be supplied from one source.

As well as conventional LVDT types: with both free core and spring loaded gauge LVDT’s, Micro Epsilon has developed a range of inductive sensors that can offer the user many real world advantages:

Whether that is a more compact installation footprint, integrated electronics, pressure resistant to 450bar, extreme high shock to 300g (axial), or high operating temperature of 210° C, we are sure we have a sensor to meet your requirements.
