MOORESTOWN, N.J. - May 30, 2025 - H. G. Schaevitz LLC, Alliance Sensors Group is now offering a miniature, lightweight LZ SERIES linear position sensor product line utilizing LVIT Technology. Designed for tight spaces that require excellent stroke-to-length ratio. The LZ Miniature Series LVITs are contactless devices for use by drones, OEMs, aerospace, robotics, factory automation, or assembly machinery applications where precision in position sensing is crucial.
The small diameter stainless steel body allows for installation in tight spaces where larger sensors might not fit, enabling more flexible and intricate engineering solutions. Additionally, units offer a wide range of available measurement options which ensures suitability for a broad spectrum of requirements within these applications.
These LVITs are offered in nominal full scale ranges; LZ-9.5 from 6.4 to 150 mm and LZ-13 from 2.5 to 200 mm with DCV in / DCV out electronics built into the sensor bodies. Miniature sensors feature either a 9.5 mm (0.375 inch) diameter, or a 12.7 mm (1/2 inch) diameter made of stainless steel and axial 1-m long cables for I/O connections. Units are “through-bore” and provide clearance for their stainless-steel target rods allowing for mechanical overstroking without damaging the sensor.
The LZ-9.5 and LZ-13 miniature linear position sensor's compact size, diverse range options, contactless technology, and cost-effectiveness make them a compelling choice for various applications seeking precise and reliable position sensing solutions while adhering to strict space and weight constraints.
