LVDT Schaevitz® Transducers - AP Series

The Analog Probe (AP) series - LVDT gage head is designed to meet the most demanding requirements of OEM tooling designers and builders.

Designed by Measurement Specialties Inc (MEAS), the first LVDT manufacturer (under our Schaevitz® Brand) and world leader in industrial linear displacement sensors, the AP series gage head was designed utilizing over 60 years of LVDT design expertise.

LVDT Série AP

Meas-Spec has revolutionized gage head manufacturing technology with the implementation of fully automated, ultra high precision CNC machining centers.

The new design has been optimized to take maximum advantage of process automation thereby eliminating costly and time consuming hand fitting of high tolerance components, resulting in a highly consistent, low cost manufacturing process. Assembled in the USA, at our ISO and AS-9100 certified Hampton, Virginia manufacturing facility, this OEM gage head has a modular design allowing for easy customization to solve your unique OEM application requirements.

The flexibility of US manufacturing reduces lead times and stock-out situations.
