Ultra high repeat accuracy inductive sensor?
Ultra high repeat accuracy inductive sensor?
(OP)
Hi all.
First post on the forum so be overbearing with me if I am violating good conduct, but I have really run aground in a project.
I am currently involved in the ungrateful task of building a "low cost" torque transducer and in connection with that, I need to find a proximity sensor (preferable inductive) that has ultra high repeatability accuracy. ideally less than 1μm, at a cheap cost (the sub 100Euro range) Switching frequency is not so important (less than 100Hz)
I am looking around at places like OMRON and Pebbler and Fuchs an the likes, but unfortunately they seldom advocate repeatability accuracy on their "cheap" sensor range (and probably for a good reason)
If you have any good leads, please help me by pointing me in the right direction.
Best regards
Rasmus

RE: Ultra high repeat accuracy inductive sensor?
Hopefully (subject to investigation on precise setup) i can live with the temperature variations within my accuracy requirement.
I am not trying to build an absolute reference torque transducer, so the accuracy may drift (to a limit) as i plan to run a "zero calibration" periodically during use.
