Photoelectrics: The Key to Successful Automation Control
|
| Company: | EMX Industries Inc. |
| As the demand for products in the world-market continues to push production, the requirements for high-speed automated processes capable of providing these products and components at lower cost and higher quality continues to increase. Since subjective, visual inspection techniques are clearly not conducive to high- speed inspection and control requirements, sensors have stepped in to fill this need.

Clamp Needs to Be Redesigned after Inspection with Sensor Film
|
| Pressurex®, a thin flexible film from Sensor Products Inc., is a versatile NDT tool for quality control and machine component inspection. Its ability to easily and rapidly show inconsistencies in surface pressure between mating or contacting surfaces has lowered scrap rate and assisted in the design and manufacture of many industrial and electronic products. |

Color Contrast & Luminescence Sensors
|
| As the demand for products in the world-market continues to push production, the requirements for high-speed automated processes capable of providing these
products and components at lower cost and higher quality continues to increase.
Since subjective, visual inspection techniques are clearly not conducive to highspeed
inspection and control requirements, sensors have stepped in to fill this
need.
One of the key components in this high-speed production environment are the
sensors. These devices provide the evaluation of many features and
characteristics of products at rates exceeding hundreds/second. Photoelectric
sensors offer non-contact verification with far higher reliability and speed than
contact techniques. |

Introduction to Accelerometers
|
| Company: | Omega Engineering, Inc. |
| An accelerometer is a device that measures the vibration, or acceleration of motion of a structure. The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the mass to "squeeze" the piezoelectric material which produces an electrical charge that is proportional to the force exerted upon it. Since the charge is proportional to the force, and the mass is a constant, then the charge is also proportional to the acceleration. |
