Resolution 0.5μm, response speed 10kHz absolute linear scale.

Temposonics offers excellent non-contact absolute displacement sensors using magnetostrictive technology, which serve as alternatives to traditional linear potentiometers, linear encoders, and rotary encoders. This absolute position sensor is an ideal solution for monitoring and controlling machines that perform hydraulic, pneumatic, and electromechanical positioning. Additionally, the sensor head is equipped with a uniquely developed high-performance LSI, allowing for not only position detection but also the detection of movement speed, enabling the provision of a complete operational profile of the machine. It can compare a user-defined target value with the actual position using a single sensor and can simultaneously measure the position at up to 30 locations. Many other features are also included. Due to these characteristics, it is adopted in various applications such as industrial equipment, robotics, welding, medical devices, and wind and wave power generation.

Simultaneously measure the 'absolute position' and 'movement speed' at up to 30 locations.

Simultaneously measures absolute positions at up to 30 locations + movement speed. This is a linear scale that applies Temposonics' unique magnetostrictive technology. It achieves high resolution and non-contact measurement, enabling highly durable and precise linear displacement measurement in harsh industrial environments. It can detect multiple positions simultaneously and absolutely, which is impossible with other linear encoders, potentiometers, LVDTs, magnetic tape/optical linear scales, and it also allows for the measurement of movement speed. Being non-contact and absolute, it requires almost no maintenance. This multi-position measurement function is available in the Temposonics R series models with CAN, Profibus, EtherCAT, and EtherNet/IP interfaces.

Achieving a resolution of 0.5μm with Temposonics, higher accuracy through linearity correction.

In applications such as cold rolling, pressing, tie bar distortion detection, and testing equipment/simulators, high-precision real-time position measurement is required. For this reason, Temposonics' magnetostrictive linear scales have been developed to provide high-quality measurements for applications that require high-speed sampling rates and dynamic control. They offer a resolution of 0.5μm over strokes of up to 20m, with linearity below ±0.01% F.S., and by using linearity correction options, linearity can be improved by 3 to 10 times. They are completely unaffected by oil and dust, eliminating the need for maintenance.

SPACECOOL Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce its support for the purpose of the newly established memorial day "Day to End the Too Hot Summer" by the Japan Climate Leaders Partnership (JCLP). In order to address the increasingly severe heat waves, we will continue to promote the expansion of our zero-energy cooling radiative cooling material "SPACECOOL." JCLP has registered August 8, 2025, and every August 8 thereafter, as "Day to End the Too Hot Summer" with the Japan Anniversary Association. — What is the new memorial day "Day to End the Too Hot Summer"? In recent times, many regions in Japan have been experiencing consecutive days of extreme heat, and the impacts of climate change are manifesting in serious ways in our lives. Nevertheless, reports and discussions linking this to "climate change" are limited, and there is currently a lack of momentum for climate change measures. In response to this issue, JCLP has decided to establish the "Day to End the Too Hot Summer" during this hottest time of the year, creating a social impetus to reframe "heat" as a climate change issue. This memorial day aims to share the commitment to halt the climate crisis for future generations and serve as a starting point for advancing the systemic transformation of society as a whole.

Are you making progress on measures for the "2024 Problem"? With stricter management of drivers' working hours, reducing "waiting time" has become an urgent issue in the logistics field. To address this challenge, our company, Hotron, proposes the "Vehicle Detection Ultrasonic Sensor 'HM-UX2'," which instantly grasps the availability of loading bays. The 'HM-UX2' contributes to the resolution of waiting times by accurately understanding the availability situation, reducing unnecessary waiting and queueing, and shortening waiting times to alleviate the burden on drivers! By replacing the "eyes" of your loading bay management with this high-precision sensor, why not start addressing the "2024 Problem"? Take a look at the product features: "Can it accurately detect availability?" "Can we really use it in our company?" "I just want to know the cost, even if it's an estimate." If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to consult with us.
