Measurement Sensors: Specular vs Diffuse
Have you ever wondered why some Measurement Sensors can only be used on dull surfaces (e.g. thread depth measurement on a tire), or only on shiny surfaces (e.g. thickness measurement of glass)? In order to fully grasp the concept, some basics about reflection must be covered. Let’s get some background information on reflection.
Temperature Controllers Using Hysteresis
A temperature controller is a device that one can employ to provide a consistent temperature in their process. Panasonic Temperature Controllers have a PID function to calculate an appropriate counter response to fluctuations in the process.
Measuring Pick Up & Drop Out Voltage Of Relays
One common electrical characteristic that is specified of Relays is the pick-up and drop out voltage. These values are defined as follows:
