Resolution of 0.5μm, response speed of 10kHz, absolute linear scale.

Temposonics offers excellent non-contact absolute displacement sensors using magnetostrictive technology, which serve as alternatives to traditional linear potentiometers, linear encoders, and rotary encoders. This absolute position sensor is an ideal solution for monitoring and controlling machines that perform hydraulic, pneumatic, and electromechanical positioning. Additionally, the sensor head is equipped with a uniquely developed high-performance LSI, enabling not only position detection but also the detection of movement speed, thus providing a complete operational profile of the machine. With a single sensor, it is possible to compare a user-defined target value with the actual position and measure the position of up to 30 locations simultaneously. Many other features are also included. Due to these characteristics, it is adopted in various applications such as industrial equipment, robotics, welding, medical devices, and wind and wave power generation.

The magnetostrictive linear displacement sensor Temposonics, using magnetostrictive technology, offers high precision (1μm) and robustness (vibration resistance of 30G, waterproof rating of IP68/IP69K, pressure resistance of 80MPa, CE compliant). It provides a variety of interfaces such as CAN, Profibus, EtherCAT, and EtherNet/IP, allowing for direct connection to the customer's system bus. Additionally, it supports daisy-chain connections, simplifying wiring. Furthermore, this sensor can simultaneously measure the positions of up to 20 permanent magnets without requiring a power cable, with a maximum measurement length of 20m.

• System bath (sauna, shower, etc.)
• Work boats, research vessels, underwater work machines
• Other measuring instruments

It is a linear displacement sensor that applies Temposonics' unique magnetostrictive technology.

High-resolution and non-contact measurement is achieved, allowing for durable and highly accurate linear displacement measurement even in harsh environments. It can simultaneously detect multiple positions (up to 30 locations) absolutely, and it is also capable of measuring movement speed. Since it is non-contact and absolute, it requires very little maintenance. This multi-position measurement function is available in the Temposonics R series models with CAN, Profibus, and EtherCAT interfaces. Additionally, it can measure up to 20 meters, making it widely adopted in various markets for detecting landslides, avalanches, rock displacement, monitoring strata and ground subsidence, and measuring structural deformation.

"Somewhat inconvenient" can quickly transform into "cost" and "risk" due to an increase in the number of employees or an expansion of business scope. What we are introducing this time is the process of a home care industry company with around 700 employees verbalizing their frustrations regarding payroll operations and considering the optimal system configuration. When we verbalize "somewhat inconvenient"... 1) The support quality of the payroll system being used is poor, causing significant stress. 2) The number of employees has been on the rise in recent years, raising concerns about running costs due to the pay-per-use system. 3) Macros are being used for data integration with a separate system. 4) We want to make backend processes like payroll payment reports easier.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I am worried about the possibility of colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as pedestrian collisions and vehicle-to-vehicle accidents. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures at various sites and alerts the surrounding area with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *When using the exit warning system, we kindly ask that you arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breaker, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. [Contents Included] ○ Exit Warning System Configuration ○ Comparison Table of Exit Warning Sensors ○ Four Modes ○ Wide Range of Applications ○ Customer Feedback ○ Appearance Diagram / Specifications ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors notify wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with one receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

We have released an introduction document for our cloud management system "Loglass." This document clearly presents the features and usage images of "Loglass," which streamlines management tasks such as budget formulation, performance management, forecast updates, and management accounting. Loglass centralizes data scattered across various systems and spreadsheets, reducing the effort required for collection, aggregation, and analysis, thereby supporting quicker and more accurate management decisions. Additionally, it helps address challenges such as the personalization of management tasks and increased workload through automation of data aggregation, history management, and real-time analysis functions. The document also includes actual implementation examples and the effects of implementation, showcasing results such as reduced workload, enhanced analysis capabilities, and improved decision-making speed. Companies considering promoting DX in management or reviewing operations centered around Excel and spreadsheets are encouraged to take a look.

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. We have many implementation examples available, so please take a look at the case study page.
