Details
Draw wire sensors, also called cable pull sensors, are designed to perform linear position measurement using an encoder and thus providing high accuracy sensing. Connected to a draw wire, the encoder delivers a signal proportional to the cable that is pulled out. While pinion and racks require perfect alignment and soldering, a draw wire sensor offers an easy-to-install system with a large variety of interface options. Thanks to the powerful UBIFAST configuration tool, customers can define the needed resolution after selecting the desired measuring range. It therefore answers any type of application involving linear displacement.
