Translational Speed Sensor

Purpose

Output measured linear speed as signal

Library

Mechanical / Translational / Sensors

Description

pict

The Translational Speed Sensor measures the linear speed of the flange marked with a dot with respect to the other flange.


Note  Speed and position sensors are ideally compliant. Hence, if multiple speed or position sensors are connected in series the speed or position measured by an individual sensor is undefined. This produces a run-time error.

Parameter

Second flange
Controls whether the second flange is accessible or connected to the translational reference frame.

Probe Signal

Speed
The measured speed, in m-
s  .
