Application of KTR Mini Recover Type Linear Sensor in Metal Processing
The working principle of a linear displacement sensor is to use a variable resistance slide rail structure. When the slide moves on the slide rail, the resistance value changes. By measuring the voltage difference between the slide rail and the fixed end, combined with the total resistance of the slide rail, the displacement can be calculated. This principle is similar to the voltage division principle of a potentiometer. This type of sensor typically includes a variable resistance slider that is fixed to the sensor's fixed location. The displacement of the slider on the slide rail will measure different resistance values, thereby achieving the conversion of displacement to electrical signals. The sensor slide rail is connected to a steady-state DC voltage, allowing small currents of microamperes to flow. The voltage between the slide and the starting end is proportional to the length of the slide movement. KTR spring self resetting linear displacement sensor is a type of linear displacement sensor that has a self resetting function and can automatically return to its initial position after measurement is completed. This is very useful in applications that require frequent measurements.
In the field of metal processing, KTR spring self resetting linear displacement sensors have various applications. For example, they can be used to measure the cutting depth of metal cutting machines or to control the stamping depth of metal stamping machines. In these application scenarios, sensors are usually installed on the moving parts of machine tools or stamping machines to monitor their displacement in real time. When the machine tool or stamping machine is working, sensors will measure and record displacement data in real time, which can be used to monitor the production process, ensure product quality, or optimize the production process. In addition, the KTR spring self resetting linear displacement sensor can also be used to monitor vibration and deformation during metal processing. For example, in the process of metal rolling, KTR sensors can be installed on the rolls of the rolling mill to monitor the displacement and vibration of the rolls in real time, thereby detecting and solving problems in a timely manner, ensuring the stability of the production process and product quality.
In addition, the KTR spring self resetting linear displacement sensor can also be used for fault diagnosis and preventive maintenance of metal processing equipment. By monitoring the operating status of the equipment in real-time, sensors can promptly detect abnormal situations such as equipment wear, failure, or deviation, so as to carry out timely maintenance and adjustment, avoiding equipment damage and production interruption.
Overall, the application of KTR spring self resetting linear displacement sensors in metal processing involves multiple aspects, including workpiece position measurement, equipment operation status monitoring, and fault diagnosis, providing important technical support for the control of metal processing processes and equipment maintenance.
