Request a QuoteMagnetostrictive linear transducers give absolute position along a stroke without contact and without the wear of a potentiometer, which is why they end up inside hydraulic cylinders and on press and injection-molding axes.
Absolute output means position is known immediately at power-up, with no homing move. Stroke length, output signal and rod or profile style are all encoded in the order code, so a replacement has to match the original exactly.
Send the order code as printed on the unit, or the stroke length, output signal and mounting style, and we will quote.
Applications
- Hydraulic cylinder position feedback
- Press and molding machine axes
- Absolute stroke measurement
- Potentiometer and encoder replacement
