STROKE MEASUREMENT:

The safety and automation development in industry and infrastructures has led to the development of controls such as stroke measurement, to monitor the cylinder function. With this in mind, REGNIER INDUSTRIES has integrated sensors into its cylinders for more than 20 years.

To extend the possibilities of stroke measurement, REGNIER INDUSTRIES has developed its own sensor: the Senso’R.
The Senso’R is able to measure strokes up to 20 m, and is also the only option for the stroke measurement on telescopic cylinders.

In addition, it has the advantage of combining the two types of measurements: linear measurements, position measurements.
