Built for precision
Phinia develops and manufactures
inductive and contact-free linear position sensors designed to work reliably in
the most demanding environments.
This product area delivers precise
linear measurement solutions based on inductive technology. Inductive sensors
are easily adapted to various applications such as clutch and brake wear, gear
position indication and measurement of liquid levels.
Designed and manufactured to meet
the automotive industry’s extensive requirements for diverse vehicle
applications.
The linear position sensor is an
essential component in automated manual transmissions (AMT) used in heavy
trucks. The AMT is a known and proven contributor to reduced fuel consumption
by optimizing the timing and shifting of gears. Removing the need for manual
interaction from the truckdriver enhances and simplifies the work environment
and increases road safety by minimizing distractions.
The sensors are fully contact-free,
reliable, highly accurate, and have a long and proven history in gearbox
solutions produced by leading commercial vehicle OEMs. All products are offered
fully tailored to the specific requirements of each application, with adaptable
housing geometry, stroke length and mating parts. They can be fitted with
either a molded cable or an integrated connector.
