German CIRRUS RESEARCH sensors, CIRRUS RESEARCH models, CIRRUS RESEARCH prices

CIRRUS RESEARCH sensors are measurement feedback devices that operate using the optical principles of gratings. Grating scales are frequently used in the closed-loop servo systems of CNC machine tools for detecting linear or angular displacement. The measurement output signal is a digital pulse, characterized by a large detection range, high detection accuracy, and fast response speed. For example, in CNC machine tools, they are commonly used to detect the coordinates of tools and workpieces to observe and track tool path errors, thereby compensating for tool motion errors. Depending on the manufacturing method and optical principle, grating scales are divided into transmission gratings and reflection gratings.

CIRRUS RESEARCH 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 to meet the reliability and stability requirements of the automotive industry. These sensors feature significant load capacity and excellent shock durability without requiring additional components. As part of the analog accelerometer product family, the tilt sensor is fully compatible with accelerometers. The output frequency can be adjusted, and it includes built-in zero adjustment. A zero-adjustment button can be customized upon request to enable zeroing at a specific angle. This is particularly useful for applications measuring relative tilt; after use, the sensor can be reset to zero. When used in such scenarios, simply mount the sensor on a fixed plane and use the zero button to clear the reading before measurement. Subsequent data read from the sensor represents the relative tilt angle with respect to that plane.

CIRRUS RESEARCH sensor application areas

Using angle sensors to control your wheels allows for indirect obstacle detection. The principle is straightforward: if the motor is running but the gear is not turning, your machine is likely blocked by an obstacle. This technique is simple to use and highly effective; the only requirement is that the moving wheel must not slip on the floor (or slip excessively), otherwise, obstacle detection will fail. Connecting an idler gear to the motor can avoid this issue. This wheel is not driven by the motor but is rotated by the movement of the device: if the idler wheel stops while the drive wheel is rotating, it indicates contact with an obstacle. Angle sensors are very useful in many situations: controlling the position of arms, heads, and other movable parts. It is worth noting that RCX performance in precise detection and counting is affected when operating speeds are too slow or too fast. In fact, the issue lies not with RCX itself, but with its operating system; if the speed exceeds its specified range, RCX will lose some data. Steve Baker has experimentally demonstrated that a rotational speed between 50 and 300 rpm is a suitable range where no data loss occurs. However, in ranges below 12rpm or above 1400rpm, partial data loss may occur. In the ranges of 12rpm to 50rpm or 300rpm to 1400rpm, RCX may also occasionally experience data loss.
