The 8360 Non-Contacting,
Through-Hole Position Sensor features 360 degree continuous rotational
capabilities in a low-profile, through-hole package. Durable packaging makes
the 8360 especially suited for applications in harsh environments such as
industrial vehicles/material handling, agricultural and construction equipment,
process controls, marine, aero-defense, energy, robotics, medical systems and
valve actuation. Specific uses include
position sensing for steering wheel, boom angle, throttling, pivoting, and traction
control. The sensor's hollow shaft
design allows the customer to mount the sensor around or over the shaft to
provide an ideal solution for applications where a blind shaft is not feasible
and space and sensor mounting flexibility is critical. The hollow shaft package
is less than 16mm thick, allowing easy interface to space restricted
applications as well as applications where a blind shaft mount is not
feasible. With its thin through-hole
package, the sensor can fit around or over the shaft, offering OEMs and design
engineers complete versatility. The 8360 is one of the few though-hole, non-contacting position
sensors available on the market today.
The flexible through-hole design combined with the durability and
reliability of non-contacting technology and 360 degree continuous rotational
capability, make it a unique product that will fulfill a wide range of OEM
requirements across many industries and applications.
Almost every automaker has had to 'pick a side' when it comes to alternative fuel options and ways to divest from a reliance on gasoline. Fiat is looking to back compressed natural gas or liquid propane as an interim solution.
Designing and filling a new type of water bottle might take less engineering work, but the description will help kids understand how science, math, and engineering influence their lives even through things that seem mundane.
Against a backdrop of mounting product complexity and a need to keep a lid on development costs, companies are recognizing a need to make simulation a more integral part of the design process. In response, vendors in the CAD world are building out CAE functionality as part of their CAD suites while simulation vendors are building tighter integrations to leading CAD tools. Keith Meintjes, Ph.D., Practice Manager, Simulation and Analysis at CIMdata, Inc., joins Design News CAD Editor Beth Stackpole in this radio program to explore the new face of integrated CAD and CAE, how companies are benefitting from this tighter partnership between platforms, and how integrating CAE earlier in the development cycle pays off in optimized product designs.
