New sensor developments
Rheintacho achieves record sales
After a very good year in 2016, both Rheintacho Messtechnik GmbH in Freiburg, Germany, and its subsidiary Rheintacho UK in Leeds, England, increased their sales by over 25% in 2017.
Several major contracts and many new sensor developments have made it possible to master the increasingly difficult international sensor market with great success and give the Group a positive outlook for the future. Exciting new developments include two sensor series that offer more than just conventional speed detection. The M8 series also integrates temperature detection. The ABZ series can not only measure speed, but also direction of rotation and position.
These additional features offer users not only technical but also cost benefits. Further developments in this area are about to go on sale. Both innovations will soon be presented at the CeMAT trade fair in Hanover.
A spectacular function will be on show in a new version of the RT Strobe pocketLED handheld stroboscope in Hanover: The auto-sync function using a laser beam and sophisticated signal receiving.
The subsidiary RT UK (Leeds, Yorkshire) is a specialist in the production of mechanical and electrical instruments and tachometers with a manufacturing process that is handcrafted in the best sense of the word. Based on the more than 110 years of experience of the German parent company and its own tradition with over 200 years of experience (formerly Foundrometers Instrumentation and Hardings of Leeds), this company is also heading successfully into the future.
Rheintacho UK specializes in the development of ATEX products. These are often used in areas where dust particles or gases create an explosive atmosphere. As a new ATEX competence center within the Rheintacho Group, RT UK is currently developing ATEX versions of some proven and established products. kp
