A look at other industries!
Ultrasonic transducers offer a wide range of applications – from automation and wind measurement to agricultural technology. Discover how our ultrasonic solutions can make your processes more efficient.
Anemometry
In anemometers, two pairs of transducers are arranged at 90° to each other. They measure wind speed and wind direction quickly and precisely by means of exact differential measurement of the sound propagation times. SECO Sensor offers special solutions for harsh environmental conditions, extreme weather and cold.
Agriculture
In agricultural engineering, transducers detect distances to soil, plants or harvesting machines. The contactless measurement works precisely and reliably even in dusty or changing light conditions. This ensures exact application rates, precise control and greater efficiency in the field.
Automation
In automated production processes, SECO transducers measure distances to workpieces or tools. The transducers detect position changes or objects with high accuracy – even with high cycle rates or changing materials. This enables precise processes and avoids downtimes.
Transducers and sensors for intelligent processes in robotics and Industry 4.0
Transducers and sensors are indispensable key technologies in modern robotics and in the Industry 4.0 environment. They enable precise motion control, smooth process sequences and adaptive reactions in dynamic production environments. Whether in production robots, driverless transport systems or networked machines – the requirements for speed, accuracy and real-time capability are high.
Sensors continuously record positions, distances, speeds, forces or ambient conditions and thus provide the basis for automated decisions. Transducers transform ultrasonic signals into digital data that is processed directly by control systems or AI systems. This results in intelligent processes with high efficiency, minimal waste and maximum flexibility.
Especially with collaborative robots (cobots) and in adaptive production lines, robust sensor concepts ensure safety in human-machine contact. They detect contact, collisions or deviations at an early stage and adapt processes independently. Even in demanding industrial environments with dust, vibrations or temperature fluctuations, robust, industrial-grade designs ensure reliable continuous use.
The digitalization of production requires data that can be recorded and networked from end to end. This is where modern transducers and sensors create the interface between real movement and digital control. They enable predictive maintenance, efficient use of resources and scalable production systems.
In networked industry, transducers and sensors are more than just measurement technology – they are the basis for autonomous processes, adaptive systems and sustainable productivity. They are already driving the intelligent factory of the future today.
