The World of MTS - Precision and Reliability
Following the founding of MTS Systems Corporation in 1951, the company rapidly developed
into a leading supplier of intelligent hardware and software products in the fields of test
and simulation systems and in measuring and automation technology. Today MTS Systems
Corporation has over 2.000 employees worldwide – 280 of whom are employed by MTS
Sensors at three sites in the USA (Cary, N.C.), Germany (Lüdenscheid) and Japan
(Tokyo). At MTS, intensive basic research is efficiently merged with a consistent focus on
practical requirements. The results are innovative solutions for a wide range of potential
industrial and non-industrial applications.

Magnetostriction - A Milestone in Measurement Technology
The heart of MTS sensors is the ferromagnetic measuring element, also
known as the waveguide, and a movable position magnet that generates
a direct-axis magnetic field in the waveguide.
When a current or interrogation pulse passes through the waveguide, a
second magnetic field is created radially around the waveguide.
The interaction between the magnetic field in the waveguide and the
magnetic field produced by the position magnet generates a strain pulse
which travels at a constant ultrasonic speed from its point of generation,
the measurement point, to the end of the waveguide where it is transformed
into an electric pulse in the sensor element.
The resulting signal is processed by the specialized electronics of the
Temposonics sensor. With our extensive know-how of ferromagnetic
materials, magnetic effects and ultrasonic processes, MTS remains unrivalled
in performance standards for non-contacting position measurement
of the highest precision.
