High-precision non-contact displacement sensors for materials research and development

The Measuring Division of Kaman Precision Products’ Advanced Magnetic Sensing (AMS) family of high-precision non-contact displacement sensors is specifically designed for the materials research and development market.

These sensors are engineered to deliver high precision with root mean square (RMS) resolution down to 1 micron, providing extremely accurate measurements essential for research applications.

This system’s non-contact measurement capability is crucial for maintaining the integrity of delicate materials. Kaman’s AMS sensors are well-suited for applications such as surface finish inspection, crack and defect detection, and other critical measurements in materials research. In addition, these sensors significantly enhance research and development capabilities by offering precise measurements without affecting the subject of study.

A key advantage of Kaman’s AMS sensors is their DIN rail configuration, which allows for easy integration into laboratory setups and research equipment. Additionally, these sensors can be customised for OEM requirements, ensuring adaptability to specific research apparatus or experimental setups. This flexibility is vital for researchers who require tailored solutions to meet their unique measurement needs.

Designed to withstand the demanding conditions of research environments, the AMS sensors are IP-67 rated and available with a variety of hermetic options. They are offered in standard configurations, including threaded, flanged, AS4320 pressure port compatible, and bolt head styles, and can be tailored to semi-custom and custom OEM integration needs.
