Sensors provide important information for almost all areas of industrial automation, e.g. digital and analog signals about positions, flows, flow rates, temperatures, distances and angles. As co-founder and pioneer of modern sensor technology, TURCK offers the appropriate product range for this purpose. Use the selection of more than 5,000 proximity sensors, optical sensors, fluid sensors and position sensors for a tailor-made solution for your specific application.

Temposonics is a recognized industry leader in sensor technologies and solutions. These sensors and transmitters enable high-precision and dynamic position and/or velocity measurement in modern automation and safety-related systems. Furthermore, the sensor solutions are also designed for mobile applications as well as for level systems. With a diverse and growing product portfolio and a focus on excellent regional support, Temposonics works closely with customers to optimize performance and reduce downtime.
Outstanding quality combined with practical know-how ensures maximum productivity and success for customers.Continuous research, development and production of sensor systemsmake it possible to constantly find new solutions for measurement tasks in the fields of industrial,mobile hydraulics as well as process technology.
Since April 2021, Temposonics has been part of Amphenol Corporation (NYSE: APH). Amphenol is one of the largest manufacturers of interconnect products in the world. The company designs, manufactures and markets electrical, electronic and fiber optic connectors, coaxial and ribbon cables, and interconnect systems. As a manufacturer of sensor solutions, Temposonics fits into the portfolio of the Amphenol group of companies, allowing customers to benefit from an expanded, complementary product selection.

The absolute, linear position sensors provided by MTS Sensors rely on the company’s proprietary Temposonics® magnetostrictive technology, which can determine position with a high level of precision and robustness.
Each Temposonics® position sensor consists of a ferromagnetic waveguide, a position magnet, a strain pulse converter and supporting electronics. The magnet, connected to the object in motion in the application, generates a magnetic field at its location on the waveguide. A short current pulse is applied to the waveguide. This creates a momentary radial magnetic field and torsional strain on the waveguide. The momentary interaction of the magnetic fields releases a torsional strain pulse that propagates the length of the waveguide. When the ultrasonic wave reaches the end of the waveguide it is converted into an electrical signal. Since the speed of the ultrasonic wave in the waveguide is precisely known, the time required to receive the return signal can be converted into a linear position measurement with both high accuracy and repeatability.
The Temposonics® technology, based on magnetostriction, does not rely on moving parts and is not exposed to mechanical stress. Therefore, the sensors exhibit considerably longer lifespans and much higher reliability when compared to other technologies, even in harsh working conditions. Furthermore, since the output from sensors with Temposonics® technology corresponds to an absolute position, rather than a relative value, it is not required to recalibrate sensors.

Balluff is a medium-sized company. Family-run for four generations, it was founded in Neuhausen on the Filder near Stuttgart and has grown into a world-oriented, leading global player. It is a company with tradition and customer relationships established over years, which acts simultaneously as an important partner in innovations and as a pacesetter for its customers.
Our company opened up to the global market very early on. Today, Balluff is no longer just at home in Neuhausen, but also has a presence in Europe, Asia, North and South America, and in all other important markets. We have a presence in 68 countries worldwide. This is so we can understand and assist our customers better and be able to provide them exactly what they need: high-quality sensor, identification and networking solutions as well as software for holistic system solutions in every area of automation.
When it comes to quality we have our own particular ideas. We call it Balluff Quality – a higher standard which goes beyond applicable official standards, not only in production but also in consulting and services.
Our clients also feel that special commitment when we assist them – fulfill their requirements, accept their challenges and develop forward-thinking technologies for them. Because we know that if our clients are perfectly equipped for the future, then so are we.
