ASM introduces high-accuracy inclination sensor in an ultra-compact housing

ASM introduces high-accuracy inclination sensor in an ultra-compact housing

ASM introduces a new inclination sensor that is robust, comes in an ultra-compact housing and provides high accuracy. The new positilt PTM27 sensor measures inclination in the range of ±180° with one axis and in the range of ±-60° with two axes. In contrast to conventional sensors of this type, the sensor offers a very high measuring accuracy with a linearity deviation max of 0.05° and a resolution of 0.005° over the measuring range 360°. The sensor is based on MEMS technology.
