Positioning transducers

INDUCTOSYN ® (USA) manufacturer of Inductosyn® transducers used for accurate measurement of angular or linear position displacements. Inductosyn® transducers combine high accuracy, extreme reliability and ruggedness to meet the demanding requirements of harsh military, space, and industrial environments.

Currently, Inductosyn® transducer applications include space satellites, submarine navigation systems, antenna pedestals, tracking mounts, telescopes, factory automation, robotics, machine tool control, cryogenic chambers, and hard vacuum chambers.

Rotary Transducers :

Outside diameters of rotary transducers measure from less than 2 inches to 42 inches
Pole counts vary from 2 (360 angular pitch) to 2160 (0.333 angular pitch)
An almost endless variety is available as either standard or special order units.
High angular accuracy: +1 arc second standard, +0.5 arc second, select.
Can be directly mounted to the axis of rotation.
Can withstand conditions ranging from cryogenic temperatures and hard vacuum to high temperatures and pressures.
Non-contacting elements have zero wear- No adjustment or lubrication ever required.
Accuracy, resolution, and repeatability are unaffected by temperature.

ABSOLUTE 11 inch

INCREMENTAL 12 inch

Linear Transducers :

High linear accuracy: +40 microinches (+0.001 mm)
Can be mounted to form continuous measuring systems of unlimited length
Can withstand conditions ranging from cryogenic temperatures and hard vacuum to high temperatures and pressures.
Non-contacting elements have zero wear.
No adjustment or lubrication ever required.
