  machinery, on-board suspension, transmission, and steering. Chip & Wafer Handling. Precision measurement and no wearing parts enable this application. Electric Actuators. Linear and rotary position can be measured using two position magnets. Hydraulic/Pneumatic Cylinders. Sensor mounted within the rod...
• Finding the right sensor for linear displacement
  MLDT ( magnetostrictive linear displacement transducers) uses a moving magnet to create a torsional pulse in a metallic waveguide. The pulse moves down the waveguide at a known speed to a wave detector. By measuring the transit time, MLDTs produce an output proportional to the magnet's position...
• Automated (Robotic) Manual Transmissions
  of traditional manual transmissions to robotically position gears. MTS magnetostrictive sensors have the unique ability to measure not only. either via program control or an operator on demand. Actuators position the. the extending or retracting linear motion of the shaft, but the rotary motion...

  integrated within the actuator design for mounting convenience. Because these magnetostrictive sensors have the unique ability to conform to both straight and curved position paths, curved or circular motions can be measured as well as linear motions. So, one sensor type and one communication method...
• Controlling high-performance electrohydraulics
  involving high-speed linear travel, heavy loads, or smooth position and pressure control. Hydraulic actuators are typically small, quiet, and produce less heat and EMI than electric actuators. And for high-performance motion control, hydraulic systems often cost considerably less than...
