In an assembly, for use in transducer-type instruments such as accelerometers, having a position- sensing movable member 26 including a pick-off element 28, wherein the movable member is secured to a support member 22 by flexures 32, 34 and the support member in turn is cantilevered between two stator members, instrument bias errors resulting from the securing of the non-cantilevered portion of the support member between the stator members can be reduced by aligning the edges of the surfaces of the stators that contact the support member with the centroid 41 of the pick-off element so that the axis 42 of cantilever rotation passes through the centroid of the pick-off area. <IMAGE> |
