German Westlock Controls sensors, Westlock Controls models, Westlock Controls prices

Westlock Controls sensors, also known as torque sensors, torsion sensors, torque sensors, and torque meters, are divided into two main categories: dynamic and static. Among these, dynamic torque sensors are also referred to as torque sensors, torque-speed sensors, non-contact torque sensors, and rotary torque sensors. Torque sensors detect the perception of torsional moment on various rotating or non-rotating mechanical components. Torque sensors convert the physical changes in torsional force into precise electrical signals. Torque sensors can be applied in the manufacture of viscometers, electric (pneumatic, hydraulic) torque wrenches, and offer advantages such as high precision, fast frequency response, good reliability, and long service life.

Westlock Controls sensor features

High-precision single-axis tilt angle sensors based on capacitive 3D-MEMS technology demonstrate exceptional reliability, outstanding stability, and unprecedented high precision across the entire temperature range. The tilt angle sensor series is designed, manufactured, and tested according to the reliability and stability requirements of the automotive industry. The series of tilt angle sensors features significant load capacity and excellent shock durability without requiring additional components. Tilt sensors are part of the analog accelerometer product family and are fully compatible with accelerometers. Tilt sensors allow adjustment of the output frequency and include built-in zero-position adjustment; zero-adjustment buttons can be customized upon request to achieve a zero-setting function at a specific angle. This is particularly useful for applications measuring relative tilt angles, allowing the sensor to return to zero after use. When used in such applications, simply fix the sensor to a specific plane and use the zero button to clear the reading before measurement; subsequent data read by the sensor will represent the relative tilt angle with respect to that plane.

Westlock Controls sensor application areas

Using angle sensors to control your wheels allows for indirect obstacle detection. The principle is very simple: if the motor is running but the gear is not turning, it indicates that your machine has been blocked by an obstacle. This technology is very simple to use and highly effective; the only requirement is that the moving wheels must not slip on the floor (or slip too frequently), otherwise, you will be unable to detect obstacles. If an idling gear connected to the motor is used, this problem can be avoided; this wheel is not driven by the motor but is driven by the movement of the device: during the rotation of the drive wheel, if the idler wheel stops, it indicates that you have encountered an obstacle. In many cases, angle sensors are very useful: controlling the position of arms, heads, and other movable parts. It is worth noting that when the operating speed is too slow or too fast, RCX will be affected in terms of precise detection and counting. In fact, the problem does not lie with RCX itself, but with its operating system; if the speed exceeds its specified range, RCX will lose some data. Steve Baker has proven through experiments that a rotational speed between 50 and 300 rpm is a suitable range, within which there will be no data loss issues. However, in the range below 12rpm or above 1400rpm, some data loss will occur. In the ranges of 12rpm to 50rpm or 300rpm to 1400rpm, RCX may also occasionally experience data loss issues.
