Non-contact absolute linear scale for machine tools and processing machines.
Temposonics
Strong against vibration, oil, and dust; maintenance-free.
Temposonics sensors are durable absolute linear scales that use magnetostrictive technology, designed to withstand harsh environments such as shock, vibration, and temperature. They offer high precision (0.5μm), robustness (vibration resistance of 30G, IP68/69K, pressure resistance of 80MPa, CE compliance), and a maximum measurement length of 20m, along with a variety of interfaces. They are suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly where high-precision and real-time position measurement is required, such as in press mold positioning, pillar strain compensation, motor feedback, and hydraulic cylinder position detection. Additionally, the movable parts only require magnets for position detection, eliminating the need for power/signal cables. This contributes to cost reduction for customers as they do not require regular maintenance, cleaning, or cooling.

Company information
Temposonics introduced a non-contact, high-precision, and cost-effective non-contact absolute sensor method to the market in the early 1970s, using the magnetostrictive effect (Weidmann effect) for position measurement, which had previously been dominated by incremental methods. As a leading company in magnetostrictive sensors, we are committed to improving accuracy as position sensors, engaging in research and development, and enhancing quality to meet the needs of the industrial sector. Our sensors are increasingly being adopted not only as linear sensors to replace rotary encoders, linear encoders, and potentiometers but also in various industries such as hydraulics, pneumatics, water pressure, injection molding, welding, printing, textiles, construction machinery, wind power generation, metal processing, as well as in disaster prevention sensors like landslide sensors and bridge sensors. Temposonics will continue to develop further and strive day and night to be of service as a leading company in industrial sensors.
