[] [A New Performance Class in Inductive Displacement Measurements](
[A new performance class in inductive displacement measurements](
Micro-Epsilon Group
The [eddyNCDT 3060 inductive measurement system]( is based on eddy currents and enables fast, precise displacement measurements. The sensors are resistant to harsh industrial environments including dirt, oil, pressure, and fluctuating temperatures. Displacement sensors based on eddy currents stand out due to their high accuracy, bandwidth, and temperature stability. Based on ease of use and smart signal processing, this non-contact system defines a new performance class in inductive displacement measurement.
