Positioning for productivity.POSITIONING FOR PRODUCTIVITY The position of a tool or object in 3D space can be determined with high precision through the use of the UOS-100 ultrasonic ultrasonic /ul·tra·son·ic/ (-son´ik) beyond the upper limit of perception by the human ear; relating to sound waves having a frequency of more than 20,000 Hz. ul·tra·son·ic adj. 1. positioning system from Pepperl+Fuchs Fuchs , Klaus Emil Julius 1911-1988. German-born physicist who worked on the development of the atomic bomb in Britain and the United States and was imprisoned (1950-1959) for passing scientific secrets to the Soviet Union. Noun 1. (www.us.pepperl-fuchs.com; Twinsburg, OH). Rather than having to depend on mechanical limits of tools in, say, assembly operations, the UOS-100 system employs ultrasonic emitters, receivers, and a control interface to make the determination of where a tool is in space (based on the calculations from obtained X, Y, Z coordinates coordinates of a point on a graph or grid map, the points on the horizontal and vertical axes which identify the location of the point on the graph/map. ).
