Industrial vibration sensors, mainly for monitoring and detecting the vibration of mechanical equipment or structures, are widely used equipment in industrial environments. Its main function is to convert mechanical vibrations into electrical signals for subsequent processing and analysis. These sensors are usually composed of sensitive components, signal amplifiers, and filters, and are commonly used to monitor the vibration of industrial equipment, building structures, vehicles, and aircraft, and help diagnose problems and predict faults.

The working principle of vibration sensors is based on various physical effects, such as the Hall effect, resistance effect, capacitance effect, etc., depending on the design and application scenario of the sensor. For example, crystal piezoelectric materials or microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) in acceleration sensors generate charge or voltage signals with the vibration of objects, which are proportional to the acceleration of the vibration.
