Revolutions
When parts are rotating, their speed can always be measured. Speed sensors which are directly attached to the shaft are usually suitable for this. If this is not possible, other measuring principles must be used where, e.g. the rotating part is measured on the front side. In order to reliably measure the speed in this arrangement, defined points per revolution must be measured. Eddy current sensors, capacitive and laser sensors are used for this.
Detection of turbocharger rotor dynamics
In order to inspect the behavior of turbochargers during different stress states, eddy current displacement sensors are applied in turbocharger test benches. The miniature design of the sensors and their ...
