A new generation of Eddy Current Sensors (ECS)

improving dynamic accuracy of closed loop bandwidth of piezo mechanisms with advanced control laws and embedded eddy current position sensors

Cedrat Technologies (CTEC) is developing a new generation of Eddy Current Sensors (ECS) that will improve the observability of displacements and therefore the bandwidth control performance and speed compared with Strain Gauges (SG).This new development also makes it possible to get more compact mechanisms than with capacitive sensors. Following the current qualification phase, this new … Read more
