<jats:p>Investigating the mechanism of electromagnetic forming (EMF) becomes a hot topic in the field of metal forming. The high speed up to 200 m/s in EMF makes it a real challenge to capture the forming process. To this end, a new method for measuring displacement at high speed based on electromagnetic induction has been developed. Specifically this is used to measure the displacement of an expanding metal ring driven by a pulsed magnetic field; this is one of the basic EMF processes. The new method is simple and practical, and it combines high-speed response with adequate precision. The new measurement system consists of a printed circuit board (PCB) and a Rogowski probe. Eleven coaxial annular detecting probes are arranged in the PCB plate to acquire induced voltage at different positions, and a Rogowski probe is used to measure the current in the driving coil. The displacement of the ring is deduced by analyzing the output voltages of the detecting probes and the Rogowski probe. The feasibility of the method is verified by comparing the results with pictures from a high speed camera taken simultaneously.</jats:p>
