摘要
Many linear motion applications that use rod-style electric actuators require information on the position of the load at every point of travel, but because stroke lengths and applications vary so widely, finding the ideal position feedback solution can be challenging. One of the most common methods for determining where the actuator stroke is uses potentiometers, also called pots, to track changes in electrical resistance or related voltage drops as the actuator extends and retracts.
