Absolute, Magnetic & Incremental EncodersAbsolute, Magnetic & Incremental Encoders
Encoders can be either absolute or incremental. Absolute
encoders have a unique code for each shaft position. Or in
other words,
every position of an absolute encoder is distinctive.Absolute
rotary encoders are capable of providing unique position
values from the moment they are switched on.

AccelerometersAccelerometers
An accelerometer is a device that measures proper
acceleration; proper acceleration is not the same as
coordinate acceleration.The sensors are manufactured with
an analog DC output.
The sensor electronics require only small amounts of power
and are in conjunction with the capacitive primary
transformer and characterised by low errors and high long-
term stability.

Draw Wire SensorsDraw Wire Sensors
Draw wire sensors are low-cost, compact sensors which
accurately measure the position or change in position of
objects.
Core components of a draw wire sensor are a precision
measuring wire and a sensor element (e.g. potentiometer or
encoder), which convert the path change into a proportional
electrical signal.

Digital MetersDigital Meters
Instrument designed to measure and totalize (weight, load,
preasure, length, or DC current with external shunt) accepts
transmitters like Load-Cell, Preasure transmitters,
Potentiometers, Shunts, etc.
Specialy useful to measure Rate and total Flow or in Galvanic
industry to control the quantity of Amperes giving a value
related to the added matherial applied on metals.

Developed for applications where compact size and minimal
above panel height is paramount, the JC025 has a very low
profile whilst still providing precise fingertip control in one
axis.
The IPD Ultima features a premium soft touch Business Blue
coating, 10 vibrant high efficiency LED pushbutton switches
as well as a durable two button three axes Hall effect
joystick.

Switches & Switched JoysticksSwitches & Switched Joysticks
The 8000 Series utilises industrial quality microswitches with changeover
contacts. As standard, the switches are rated to a maximum of 1 Amp,
and have gold plated contacts for reliable switching at low current levels.
Multimec 3A is for caps with hinges in order to imitate rocker-function
switches. Because of this type of caps the travel of the 3A switch is 2 mm.
There is also an illumination option with LED mounted on the switch.
3ATL6 is a low temperature through-hole switch.

Battlefield & Simultor ControllersBattlefield & Simultor Controllers
Daco's modular trackballs are available in two versions, MT4 and MT6,
both of which have a list of options that include different ball sizes,
control buttons and interfaces.
Hand controllers used in armoured fighting vehicles must be rugged. But
other factors must also be considered such as space restrictions and a
need to operate the hand controller even when the vehicle is moving.

Rotary Position SensorsRotary Position Sensors
Co-moulded fully encapsulated sensor system that can withstand high
shock and vibration as well as operate up to +170°C, and endure high
pressure wash-downs (IP69K). The sensor is activated by a separate
magnet with a choice of two carrier designs.
Rotary Potentiometer are automated trimming of linearity and resistance by
profiling of the resistive element maintains consistent high quality. Exact
setting of pre-load on the stainless steel ball races supporting the shaft,
eliminates shaft radial and axial play throughout the life of the
potentiometer and provides excellent vibration and shock performance.

Linear Position SensorsLinear Position Sensors
One very common type of linear position sensors is the linear
variable differential transformer, or LVDT. It is a type of electrical
transformer which is used for sensing and measuring linear
displacement.
Using the proven benefits of Hybrid Track Technology and
including a number of unique design features, the SLS190 is
ideally suited to high volume OEM manufacturers, where high
performance and reliability with competitive pricing and rapid
despatch has paramount importance.

Pressure SensorsPressure Sensors
A pressure sensor measures pressure, typically of gases or
liquids. Pressure is an expression of the force required to
stop a fluid from expanding, and is usually stated in terms
of force per unit area.
A pressure sensor usually acts as a transducer; it generates a
signal as a function of the pressure imposed.Being all
stainless steel, it is compatible with most media including
corrosive fluids used in industry.

InclinometersInclinometers
Inclinometers, also called tilt sensor, clinometers or slope
sensors are measuring the angle of an object with respect
to the force of gravity.The sensor electronics require only
minimal power and are in conjunction with the capacitive
primary transformer characterized by high accuracy, a high
signal-to-noise ratio and high long-term stability.
19. Motor Controllers
A Motor Controller is a device that acts as intermediary
between your robot's microcontroller, batteries and
motors. A motor controller is necessary because a
microcontroller can usually only provide roughly 0.1 Amps
of current whereas most actuators (DC motors, DC gear
motors, servo motors etc.) require several Amps.

SigmadriveSigmadrive
Sigmadrive controllers possess many features and capabilities that will
benefit the electric vehicle designer. Sigmadrive is available in 3 frame
sizes covering AC induction and most DC motor types, for traction,
pump and power steering functions over a wide range of battery
voltages and power outputs.Insulated Metal Substrate (IMS)
technology is fully utilized to provide superior thermal performance
and exceptional reliability.
21. Custom Design
We can design and manufacture custom control solutions for man-
machine interfaces. We can also provide solutions for problems such
as an out-dated joystick controller – where we replace devices with
new versions that mimic the original electrical output, mechanical
functions as well as matching the crucial mechanical properties.
