Lion Precision has expanded its capacitive probe offerings with new probes. Designed to accommodate larger measurements and smaller spaces, the new probes are available in 25, 18 and 3 mm diameters. The new probes have been designed to provide advanced and long-term temperature drift, resolution and stability.

Using the new 3 mm diameter probes, the C3R and C3S, measurements as small as 10 µm can be taken with low resolution of less than 1nm. The two probes are 15mm in length and feature axial cable or right-angle exits for fitting them into tight spaces and can also measure ranges of 25, 50, 80 and100 µm. The larger probes, with 18mm (C18) and 25mm (C25) diameters can be used for measurement ranges of 12.55 mm while maintaining a low resolution of only 125 nm. The new probes can be used at colder cryogenic temperatures.
The President of Lion Precision, Don Martin stated that advanced construction techniques and out-of-the box design approaches have enabled the creation of larger and smaller probes capable of the high performance expected by the customers.
The larger probes, C18 and C25 opens new possibilities for CPA100, the low cost driver used in process monitoring and production based applications that require larger ranges.
The larger probes expand the possibilities for the CPA100, a low cost capacitive displacement sensor used in process monitoring and production applications where larger ranges are required. The CPA100 provides repeatable non-contact measurement data of position chances in conductive and non-conductive targets.
Lion Precision develops displacement sensors and custom sensors for PCB and packaging industries.
