Building on the experience with eddy current sensors, MECOS has gone one step ahead with the development of the patented Transverse Flux Sensor (TFS). The TFS consists of coils that are etched on a printed circuit board (PCB) and may be used for position measurement in axial and radial directions as well as for angular position. The PCB being the only component of this novel sensor - no active electronic components are present - cost can be lowered dramatically and sensor size is very small.
