what tools would you use to measure displacement
There is a common misconception that measuring displacement using an accelerometer is not. possible or can lead to erroneous information. In reality, accelerometers have long been used to. measure displacement. However, it is important to understand that displacement measured with. an accelerometer is not the same displacement measured with shaft riders or eddy current style. vibration transducers. Eddy current probes are precisely thru-hole mounted into a mechanical casing and measure two. very important shaft parameters.
