Distance, Position and Displacement Sensors

Micro-Epsilon capacitive sensors perform highly accurate non-contact measurements of displacement, distance and position on electrically conductive targets.

Micro-Epsilon eddy current based sensors are designed for non-contact measurement of displacement, distance, position, oscillation and vibration.

They are particularly suitable when high precision is required in harsh industrial environments (pressure, dirt, temperature).

OptoNCDT sensors have set milestones in laser displacement measurement in the industry. Whether measuring displacement, distance or thickness, Micro-Epsilon laser sensors are considered the best in their class.

These laser sensors are used, for example, in measurement and monitoring tasks in industrial automation, electronics production, robotics and vehicle manufacturing.

ConfocalDT chromatic confocal measurement systems are used for fast distance and thickness measurement.

Different sensor models and controller interfaces open up versatile fields of application, such as in the glass industry, medical engineering and plastics production.

Micro-Epsilon's innovative white light interferometers are the benchmark when it comes to high precision distance and thickness measurements.These sensors enable stable measurement results with subnanometric resolution.

Long distance laser sensors are designed for non-contact measurements. The measuring range of these sensors is from 10 m to 3000 m. These sensors are used, for example, in the positioning and classification of construction equipment and machinery handling.

Micro-Epsilon offers a wide range of inductive sensors for displacement and position measurement, from conventional LVDT sensors and inductive sensors with integrated controller to high volume customer specific versions. Micro-Epsilon induSENSOR displacement sensors are used in processes automated, quality control, test benches, hydraulics, pneumatic cylinders and automotive engineering.

MainSENSOR sensors are based on an innovative measurement principle that has been developed by Micro-Epsilon to combine the advantages of inductive and magnetic sensors. Magneto-inductive sensors are often used as an alternative to inductive sensors and proximity sensors in process automation, the packaging industry and in machine monitoring.

The wireSENSOR series wire sensors measure nearly linearly across the entire measuring range and are used for distance and position measurements from 50mm to 50,000mm These wire pull sensors are ideal for integration into high volume OEM applications , as for example in medical devices, elevators, conveyors and automotive.
