Taming the tilt of the synchrotron
Out of Inertial Aerosystems's range of high performance tilt sensors, the most sensitive are being used in the field of high energy physics for synchrotron and particle beam applications.
These miniature tilt sensors are incorporated because of their high resolution and repeatability The resolution is 0.1microradian in +/-8000microradians full scale (+/-0.46deg)
They are effective tools for finely adjusting the magnetic arrays that align the particle beams.
These sensors are also ideal for precise angular positioning of X-ray and laser mirrors and monochrometers.
They maintain absolute reference with respect to gravity and, unlike optical encoders, do not need to be re-initialised on power up.
These high quality devices are also available in vacuum compatible versions.
Currently they are being used by the leading research laboratories throughout the world. Request a free brochure from Inertial Aerosystems UK ...
