Taking responsibility for our people, environment and for future generations

As part of the Amphenol Group, sustainable business practices are at the core of how we conduct our operations. We believe that adopting sustainable business practices is not just the right thing to do as a global company, it is simply good business. Find out how we at Temposonics put sustainability into practice every day - through responsible decisions, efficient processes, and meaningful initiatives that help protect the environment and make our world a better place for future generations.

Measurable Achievements

Green energy

Electricity is one of our most significant sources of energy. We source 75% of our electricity from renewable sources. This has enabled us to reduce our CO2 footprint by several tons per year.

More recycling

In 2025, around 5 tons of residual waste were "produced" in Lüdenscheid and 71 tons in the form of cardboard/paper, packaging, wood and scrap metal were disposed of by type. This means that over 92% of our waste has been recycled .

Less paper consumption

Our technical documentation is only available online. This has enabled us to save many trees, reduce waste production and minimize emissions from shipping.

At the same time, our customers always have access to the latest versions of our documents. We are also making great strides towards a paperless office.

Our products’ impact

Super long life-cycle

Our absolute linear position sensors are based on the company's proprietary magnetostrictive technology, which can determine position with high accuracy and robustness, without contact and without mechanical stress. As a result, our sensors have much longer lifetimes and much higher reliability and availability. We have examples where our transducers have been working for more than 30 years!

Safety & comfort for the operator

The MH series position sensors have been specially developed for stroke measurement in hydraulic cylinders of mobile working machinery.

They are designed to withstand shocks and vibrations and ensure reliable motion control: this not only increases the availability of the machine, but also prioritizes safety and comfort for the operator.

Maximum energy production

Wind turbines are subjected to tremendous aerodynamic forces and continuously changing wind speeds and directions. A critical feature to help wind turbines work optimally is the hydraulic pitch control, which adjusts the angle of the rotor blades by a few degrees to maximize the output for all wind speeds. Temposonics position sensors are used to accurately measure the exact blade position to ensure its optimal angle. Due to the difficulty of accessing and maintaining the turbines in remote and difficult-to-reach areas the sensors must be highly accurate, function in harsh environments and operate reliably over many years. By extending the longevity of these wind turbines, our products are helping to support the shift to alternative energy solutions.

No waste of raw material

Position sensors play a crucial role in minimizing the waste of raw materials. In a sawing machine, for example, they enable the log to be positioned according to the optimum sawing pattern calculated by the computer and provide the precise linear feedback that the saw motion controller needs to avoid wasting raw material.

Environmentally friendly design

The modular design of the R-Series V, R-, G- and GB-Series devices allows the easy replacement of the sensing element and electronics without breaking the cylinder‘s high pressure seal. This prevents leaks from the cylinder port.

Not a drop lost

The information provided by our displacement transducers is used to position the filling and the capping carousel fully automatically at the correct height. Not a drop of product is lost!

One sensor for 30 positions

We offer sensor solutions with up to 30 position magnets. The multi-position measurement reduces drastically the number of sensors needed for one application.

Flexible rod for compact packaging

Sometimes very long stroke lengths are required. Shipping the very long sensor can therefore be a real challenge.

Not if the rod is flexible and can be rolled up and packed in a compact package. This clever design avoids wasteful packaging material.

For our employees

Workplace safety and well-being

At Temposonics, we recognize that the safety and well-being of our employees are paramount to our success. We are dedicated to fostering a culture of safety, respect, and inclusivity, ensuring that every member of our team feels valued and supported. By prioritizing the health and happiness of our workforce, we not only enhance individual lives but also fuel the collective prosperity of our company.

Keeping our employees safe has always been one of our highest. The coordination of onsite safety programs, resources, reporting and training is conducted by our specialized staff to ensure these programs are properly communicated and understood. Moreover, we do our best in providing ergonomic furniture, and organizing Healthy Events.

At our facilities in Germany there is fruit buffet twice a month and we contribute to the purchase of bicycles. In Lüdenscheid, we also offer free charging for e-cars and e-bikes.

Talent development

We remain committed to investing in our people to provide them with the skills they need today and in the future.

We want to ensure that our business remains competitive, which means supporting our employees with the training and tools they need to develop and enhance their professional skills and career. Within the framework of an apprenticeship, we give the opportunity to students to gain relevant work experience in parallel to the theory taught by schools and universities, and thus to tackle the job directly in the company.

Diversity and inclusion

Temposonics is a global, multicultural company and our employees reflect the diversity of our geographic footprint.
