When you need to measure position or movement in automation, robotics, or industrial control, two names usually come up: encoder vs potentiometer. While both serve a similar purpose—providing position feedback—their working principles, strengths, and ideal use cases are very different. Let’s dig deeper into how these two popular sensors stack up so you can make […]
When you’re working with automation, robotics, or industrial control systems, you’ll often come across the term “encoder.” But have you ever stopped to wonder what the encoder symbols means in technical diagrams? Let’s break it down together—so the next time you see an encoder symbol, you’ll know exactly what you’re looking at and why it […]
If you’ve ever marveled at how a robot arm knows exactly where to stop, or wondered how a conveyor belt keeps things moving at just the right speed, you’ve already seen encoders at work—though you might not have realized it. Encoders are like the nervous system of modern machines. They sense movement and position, then […]
Proximity switch sensors are devices that detect the presence or absence of objects without physical contact. They play a crucial role in enhancing efficiency and safety in industrial processes. These sensors are vital in modern manufacturing, enabling precise control over machinery and ensuring consistent product quality. Working Principle of Proximity Switch Sensors Types of Proximity […]
Proximity sensors are the unsung heroes of automation, playing a crucial role in detecting objects without physical contact. They’re essential in industries ranging from manufacturing to security systems. This article will dive into the primary types of proximity sensors, exploring their working principles, applications, and both the advantages and disadvantages of each. Overview of Proximity […]
Imagine a device that can detect objects without even touching them—sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie, right? Well, capacitive proximity switch sensors make this possible in the real world! These clever little gadgets are everywhere, from your smartphone screen to industrial automation systems. But how do they work, and why should you care? […]
