The new generation of the R-Series has the suffix V. Because the R-Series V is not only supposed to differ from its predecessor R-Series in its improved features, but also in its name. The character V does not stand for the 22nd letter of the alphabet but for the Roman number V = 5. But why V or 5? This question is answered by Dr Olaf Kissing, Product Manager Industrial Sensors at Temposonics.

Linear position sensors installed in mobile hydraulics machinery are frequently exposed to the most difficult conditions and harsh environmental influences. Due to its well-proven cylinder integration, the sensor is protected optimally. Using the right sensor for the right application in mobile hydraulics is extremely important. In this article, Reinier Smallegange, Sales Manager at Diverto Technologies BV, describes how sensors supplied by Temposonics are used in a multifunction machine.

What are the trends in mobile sensor technology? What role do other measured variables and machine safety play in mobile applications and what will future sensors look like? Thomas Schmale, Application Engineer Mobile Hydraulics at Temposonics, explains these and other questions to us.

In the first part of this article the data transmission via SSI as well as the asynchronous mode and the synchronous mode 1 of the R-Series V SSI were described. In this second part Dr Olaf Kissing explains the two further synchronous modes 2 and 3 of this linear position sensor.

Within the production of metal plates, press brakes ensure that the metal gets the right shape. Temposonics linear position sensors play an important role in this, as they can be used to control the pressure on the metal and the movement of the press. How this works is explained in the following text.

In this latest blog entry, Dr. Olaf Kissing, our Product Manager Industrial Sensors, provides you with some technical details on how users can gather and transfer measurement information from R-Series V position sensors with SSI output to the controller.

In this interview with Günther Wensing GmbH, Managing Director Jens Wensing explains how position sensors from Temposonics support the control of CNC stretch-bending machines, what requirements must be met and what role the position sensors play in Industry 4.0.
