The tilt sensor is a very accurate measuring tool for small angles. It can measure the inclination of the measured plane relative to the horizontal position, the parallelism and perpendicularity of the two components. It has become an indispensable and important measuring tool in bridge construction, railway laying, civil engineering, oil drilling, aviation and navigation, industrial automation, intelligent platform, mechanical processing and other fields.
1. The principle of tilt sensor
The working principle of the inclination sensor is based on microelectromechanical system (MEMS) technology and accelerometer principle. It is equipped with tiny accelerometers, and by using gravity, inertia and other mechanical principles, to detect the object's tilt angle relative to the Earth's horizontal plane.
When the object is at rest, the tilt sensor is subjected to gravity, which causes the accelerometer to align with the vertical direction of the Earth. When the object tilts, the direction of the accelerometer changes accordingly, resulting in an electrical output indicating the angle and direction of the object's tilt.
