Novotechnik - New Compact, Tough Angle Sensors

Novotechnik, U.S. introduces the Vert-X 1600 Series of sensors that measure angular position and are compact housing base diameter of 16 mm.

Southborough, MA… Novotechnik, U.S. introduces the Vert-X 1600 Series of sensors that measure angular position and are compact housing base diameter of 16 mm.


Vert-X 1600 Series sensors These sensors convert rotational angle into an analog or digital output. Measurement range is 0 to 360° with 14-bit resolution and repeatability of 0.1°. Available analog outputs are 10 to 90% of supply voltage and 5 to 95% of supply voltage. Digital interface options include SPI and PWM.

The sensors are sealed to IP 65, life is ≥ 50 million movements and MTTF is 668 years. Redundant versions of the Vert-X 1600 are available. A 6 mm D-Shaped shaft and two reinforced through-holes enable easy mounting.

These sensors are ideal for industrial, medical, off-highway vehicle and other applications with an operating temperature range of -40 to +125°C will operate with up to 10 N axial or radial shaft load.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
