Tape drive speed and vibration acceleration sensor

Abstract

The design of the speed and vibration acceleration sensor of the tape drive mechanism (DSVAS) for the parameters control, in particular, the vibration and speed of the tape drive mechanism from ferromagnetic and electrically conductive bodies using the Hall sensor as the main sensitive element is considered. DSVAS has an increased linearity of the metrological characteristics and sensitivity, is easy to operate and, with further transformation, can be used as a non-destructive testing flaw detector. A mathematical model with conclusions based on the results obtained is developed. The sensor can be put to use in the field of instrumentation, mechanical engineering, energy, diagnostics, etc. Keywords metrology, technology, information systems, linearity, magnetic Reynolds number, mathematical model
