Engineers and scientists need to measure angular position and angular movement in a wide variety of situations. Applications range from manufacturing to mining, medicine to metrology, civil engineering to physics, astronomy and beyond.

Founded in 1982, Applied Geomechanics now manufactures the world's broadest and most sensitive line of gravity-referenced angle measurement tiltmeters and inclinometers. Because they are gravity-referenced, you can install them anywhere. There is no need for shafts, linkages or other complicated and expensive fixturing. Whether you want to measure degrees, arcseconds, microradians or nanoradians of angular rotation, Applied Geomechanics has the right product for your application.

In addition to our angle measurement products, we offer hand-held readouts and a field-hardened recording station (data logger) for monitoring dams, bridges, deep excavations and other critical structures. We also provide installation, training, data acquisition and reporting services.

Product Line Overview

500-Series Geodetic Tiltmeters. Our top performers, these precision platform and borehole instruments are the ultimate investment for projects where only maximum resolving power and stability will do. Typical applications include leveling of inertial platforms and geophysical research.

700-Series Tiltmeters and Tilt-Sensing Systems. This popular series has established a reputation for precision and reliability in all corners of the world. Enhancements such as our digital readout units, and automatic recording stations make the 700-Series the most versatile movement monitoring system on the market today.  Typical applications include pointing and position of telescopes, particle beams and lasers, satellite testing, dam and bridge monitoring, and volcano monitoring.  

800-Series Engineering Tiltmeters. Economical and easy to use, these uniaxial tiltmeters can monitor machines and structures, and provide on-the-spot data with our plug-in readout module. Typical applications include monitoring during construction, rotary position and control and bridge monitoring.   

900-Series Biaxial Clinometers. These small clinometers are excellent choices for pitch and roll measurement, and a wide variety of positioning and control applications. 900-Series Clinometers offer low cost, precision and versatility to both OEM and end users. Typical applications include marine systems, medical
devices, automation and scale error correction.

Recording Stations and Signal Conditioners. Applied Geomechanics also manufactures a full line of helpful accessories for set up and operation of your tiltmeter system including recording stations, multiplexers, signal conditioners, power supplies and digital readout units.
