Cable Extension Transducer

Cable extension transducers, often referred to as string pots or draw-wire sensors, are precise devices designed to measure linear displacement, position, or velocity. They function by extending a durable, flexible cable attached to a spring-loaded spool, converting the movement into an electrical signal. These sensors are highly versatile and are utilized in a broad range of applications, including industrial machinery, medical devices, automotive testing, and motorsports.

The transducers come in multiple designs to suit varying needs. Compact models are ideal for tight installation spaces, while heavy-duty versions are designed to endure harsh industrial conditions, ensuring longevity and reliability. Precision types cater to applications requiring high accuracy, such as robotics or advanced motion control systems. Outputs can be analog or digital, allowing seamless integration into modern control and monitoring systems.

This adaptability, combined with robust construction and reliable performance, makes cable extension transducers indispensable for industries prioritizing accurate position tracking and system efficiency.
