The new high-accuracy inclination sensor positilt PTM27 in an ultra-compact housing is suitable for applications where high robustness and accuracy are required. It can also replace rotary angle sensors advantageously. ASM introduces a new inclination sensor that is robust, comes in an ultra-compact housing, and provides high accuracy. The new positilt PTM27 sensor measures inclination […]

In many applications, both displacement and inclination must be determined for ultimate functionality. Usually two different sensors need two be applied to capture both parameters, even if the variables need to be measured at the same spot of the machine. In such cases, a combined measurement of the variables in one sensor saves costs, installation […]

ASM has released a contact-less, ultra-flat magnetostrictive position sensor for space-restricted applications such as in mobile machines. posichronPCFP25 is an absolute, non-contact and wear-free position sensor with measurement ranges from 100 mm up to 5,750 mm. The sensor system consists of a magnetostrictive waveguide and a moveable position magnet. The dimension of the slim profile […]

ASM International and Granta Design, a leader in materials information technology, have developed a new Surgical module in the ASM Medical Materials Database. This new resource covers materials used in surgical devices, combining engineering material properties and biomedical response data with surgical application information. The Surgical module is fully integrated with existing Orthopaedic, Cardiovascular and…
