Global Linear Displacement Sensor Market: Overview

Linear displacement sensors are common displacement gauges that are used to measure the travel distance from the current location to the pointed location. These sensors are very light in weight along with a wide range of applications in different sectors like chemical, oil & gas, industrial, and others. Moreover, these sensors are also used to examine the dimensions for finding the thickness, height, and width of the object. The working principle of these displacement sensors is based on two points, one is non-contact measurements utilizing the sound waves, magnetic field, and second is the direct contact measurement with an object. Sensors possess some other properties like temperature drift, automatic level correction, high-resolution eclectic shutter, and others. Some of the commonly used applications are process control and locating electronic components applications on the given PCB during manufacturing.
