Among the innovations dedicated to the world of mobile hydraulics presented by the Gefran group in Parma during the automation fair, standout products included non-contact linear position transducers operating based on a patented technology called “Twiist.” These transducers measure various process variables, such as displacement speed, acceleration, vibration, and tilt angle, and from the combined analysis of these variables, they extract important information related to the monitored process. For example, a single sensor can calculate the position of a hydraulically controlled arm, identify which specific operation a machine is performing,…
