ABSTRACT:
A force detecting element is used to move a moving coil that is formed without ferromagnetic materials and is driven using a stationary coil that is formed without ferromagnetic materials, thereby producing an output signal which is more linear than the previous techniques. The output signal produces an output indicative of a resolution in the range of microns or less.
