Our cylinders with position sensors are hydraulic cylinders in which we implement linear position sensors to measure the linear movement, position and speed. By building a measurement system into the cylinder, not only the life time of the hydraulic cylinder is extended, but it also becomes possible to automatize processes. Furthermore the measurement equipment makes the hydraulic system a lot safer.
The build-in sensors are shock proof and precisely detect the position of the piston rod of your hydraulic cylinder. VAPO also offers log systems to monitor the covered distance of every cylinder. This way preventative maintenance can be scheduled and unplanned downtime can be avoided.
