Sensor Solutions: Experts in Magnetic Pickups
Magnetic pickups are self-powered sensors that emit a sine wave output when they detect a ferromagnetic target. The main components of a magnetic pickup are a magnet, a coil, and a pole piece. The output amplitude of the sine wave can be affected by various factors such as the target’s speed, shape, and the distance between the target and the sensor. They can be used for a wide variety of applications, from speed and direction sensing to power and timing. Also, they can have exposed pole pieces, or the pole pieces can be covered. Sensors with exposed pole pieces will produce a better signal, which is sometimes necessary for detection.
