We created a custom ultrasonic piezoelectric transducer for high accuracy displacement measurement and predictive maintenance for a well-known industrial manufacturer.
What we did
To drive the sensor, we created custom pulser-receiver electronics to drive the transducer and calculate displacement.
The sensor was capable of measuring displacements with an accuracy of ± 20nm. It could withstand large shocks and vibration and survive over temperatures ranging -40 to +200C.
“We enabled the client to be confident of moving from the current source of raw material to a new source for its product. Furthermore, as our first project with this client, we built trust and credibility that will lead to further projects in the near future.”
Results for our client
The sensor was delivered to TRL4 and is now undergoing miniaturisation and design for manufacture.
