Sensors world The draw-wire linear position sensor consists of a flexible cable or wire that is wound around a spool or drum. One end of the cable is typically attached to the object whose position needs to be measured, while the other end is connected to a spring-loaded spool.
Sensors world draw wire sensor, As the object moves, it pulls or releases the cable from the spool, causing the spool to rotate. This rotation is then converted into an electrical signal using a potentiometer or an encoder mechanism. The electrical signal corresponds to the linear position of the object.
1. Long service life, up to 5 million operations
