Newsletter for design and research engineers, specifiers, and students provides practical information on all aspects of transducers
The Summer 2003 issue of 'Transducer Action' - the regular newsletter from RDP Electronics - is now available direct from RDP.
Published for the benefit of design and research engineers, specifiers and students, Transducer Action combines application features with in-depth transducer information and the latest developments from RDP, including information on RDP's website.
In this issue, you'll see an example of a low-cost strain measurement system based on RDP's 600 series multi-channel data acquisition and freeware for a PC to display and analyse the data; a practical application for RDP's new submersible displacement transducers and a new section 'Did you know that?' with helpful tips from RDP's technical team.
Established user of RDP products, BK Automation of Southampton, opens its doors to describe a recent application for RDP LVDTs and amplifiers in a pipe assembly machine it was commissioned to build for a client.
The machine produces five variants of high-pressure pipe used for turbo chargers in the automotive industry and RDP's solution ensures repeatable quality during assembly.
Continuing a regular educational theme in this issue, 'Understanding Accuracy' explores the implications of temperature coefficients, and there is also an update of what's available from RDP on the internet. 'Transducer Action' is available free on request.
