JW-KTM(S04) KTM Mini Linear Displacement Sensor with 25-300mm measuring stroke is a compact pull rod type linear position sensor designed for accurate displacement measurement and position feedback in industrial equipment.
The sensor adopts a conductive plastic resistance element to convert linear mechanical movement into a proportional electrical signal.
With stable output performance, compact structure and excellent repeatability, it is suitable for applications requiring continuous linear position measurement.
A mini linear displacement sensor is a measurement device that converts linear movement into an electrical signal.
When a mechanical component, structure or object moves along a straight line, the sensor measures the displacement distance and outputs corresponding measurement data.
Unlike simple limit switches that only detect position changes, displacement sensors provide continuous measurement values.
This allows engineers to analyze:
Long-term displacement patterns
Movement trends
Deformation changes
Structural behavior
Mechanical position
Working Principle of Linear Displacement Measurement
A linear displacement sensor typically includes:
Sensing element
