Inductive displacement transducers operate with no electrical or mechanical contact between the core and the sensor body; as such, these sensors are inherently free from friction and therefore can be used in long-term and/or high-frequency applications, and models without integral electronics can be used in very high or low temperature environments. Techni Measure supply a large variety of linear inductive displacement sensors, with or without internal electronics, free core and gauging (spring return) versions with ranges starting at 1.5mm and the world’s smallest linear displacement sensor from Microstrain by HBK to 360mm in the Schrieber Messtechnik series.

TML provide a range of adhesives with formulations designed specifically for use in strain gauge applications for many different material types and environments. A range of coatings are also available for environmental or mechanical protection of your strain gauge installation. Techni Measure will be happy to advise on the optimal adhesive and coating for your specific application.

Techni Measure supply a range of strain gauge-based linear displacement transducers and extensometers from TML, with a wide variety of designs for many applications, including crack or gap monitoring and for long-term use e.g. in civil engineering applications. These transducers are also perfect for use where compatibility with existing strain gauge instrumentation and data acquisition is required.

Capacitive displacement, gap measuring and hole dimension sensors from Capacitec for non-contact, ultra high precision, high frequency and/or high temperature applications (up to 1000°C). As well as rack mount signal conditioning Capacitec also manufacture the Gapman, a unique handheld portable gap measuring system that is widely used across industry to replace the common feeler gauge, improving resolution and eliminating user errors. Suppliers of the LiniGage Aircraft Engine Rotor Eccentricity Realignment System, Capacitec also provide customised solutions for bespoke applications.

Sakae manufacture a very wide range of single and multi-turn rotary potentiometers utilising wirewound, conductive plastic or hybrid technology. There are many models with a large choice of standard options and customised products manufactured to customer drawings are available. Techni Measure stock a wide range of standard models in the UK for fast delivery and we are happy to hold stock of customised models for fast delivery on repeat orders. Quantity discount schemes are available. Please contact us for advice on selection of the correct potentiometer for your application.

Sakae multi-turn digital dials are designed for use with their multi-turn potentiometers. Please ask for further details.

Joysticks and Foot Controllers from Sakae offer electrical control of remote mechanical operations. They are available with potentiometer or switch type outputs. Please ask for advice or for further details.
