The Ultrasonic sensor takes millimeter-precise measurements of the distance from objects or the fill levels of media such as liquids. It uses ultrasonic waves as a displacement sensor. When measuring the distance, the principle of the transit time measurement often comes from high-frequency sound pulses for use. Objects can be metallic, non-metallic, transparent, powdery or liquid. Below we present them New before:

The Precision hard turning counts in myonic in the machine tool warehouse business area on the most important production steps. The turning takes place directly to the final dimension with single-digit μ-tolerances. A Probe of Blum Novotest now measures important workpiece dimensions directly in the machine clamping. This increases the accuracy of the measurements, improves the manufacturing process and shortens the lead time.

As the heart of a machine tool, the spindle determines the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the workpiece to be machined. High speeds and heat generation lead to axial expansion of the tool spindle and the resulting positional errors when machining the workpiece. The new miniature eddy current sensor 'Eddy NCDT SGS 4701' from Micro-Epsilon detects the thermal and centrifugal force-related expansion of high-frequency spindles by measuring on the labyrinth ring.
