MTS Sensors, a division of MTS Systems Corporation (NASDAQ: MTSC), is the pioneer of Temposonics® magnetostrictive technology and a worldwide manufacturer of non-contact linear position sensors and liquid level transmitters that enable reliable feedback control for automation and safety applications.
With a versatile and ever increasing product portfolio, MTS Sensors cooperates closely with customers, to optimize performance and reduce downtimes. Outstanding quality associated with practical know-how ensures that customers achieve utmost productivity and success. Continuous research, development and production of sensor systems constantly enable new solutions for measuring tasks in the industrial, mobile hydraulics as well as process technology fields to be created.
R-Series V is the successor to our current fourth generation. The new sensors have higher resistance to vibration and high temperatures, are ready for Industry 4.0 and fit perfectly into existing applications.
The new sensors are even more powerful in use. They offer a sampling rate of up to 4 kHz with extrapolation. They also feature Profinet with IRT (Isochronous Real Time) and EtherNet/IP™ with CIP Sync (Common Industrial Protocol) and a typical jitter of ±2 µm.
The new Industry 4.0 features offer users great advantages, as they provide additional information about the process in addition to the pure process data (position/speed). Status and statistical data is recorded and processed during operation, and can be used to better understand the processes within the application.
In combination with the increased performance and improved robustness, the user is offered the certainty that existing applications work even more reliably and that future requirements are already being met.
In July 2016, MTS Systems Corporation (Eden Prairie, USA) purchased PCB Piezotronics Inc. (Depew, USA). The acquisition will continue MTS’ and PCB’s long history of growth. Our customers benefit from an extended, complementary product portfolio, while relying on the unwavering competence and diligence of our support team. MTS Sensors has 1450 employees worldwide who serve our global customers with a focus on superior regional support.
