The accuracy of an angular-displacement transducer

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Conclusions

The above method can be used to check photoelectric transducers of angular displacement under static operating conditions.

Integration of the signals from n groups of lines enables one to reduce the transducer error by averaging the random components of the errors in the positions of the lines and the errors in their widths and consequently enables one to use comparatively rough graduated circles in the construction of highly accurate instruments.
