Achieving consistent quality and meeting tight tolerances requires precise control of the press's ram position and speeds. This article discusses four ways linear transducers contribute to these objectives.

Balluff’s new Inductive Rapid Positioning System delivers fast continuous linear position measuring with the added bonus of condition monitoring capabilities.

Balluff’s BTL LDPS delivers continuous position sensing up to 1.5 km.

Digital rotary encoders provide precise position feedback and motion control for a range of applications, from simple motor speed control to complex robotics and CNC machines.
