  • Page 9: Operating Principle

    Operating principle Turck LTX sensors utilize the magnetostrictive principle. A "waveguide" is located in the measur- ing probe of the linear position sensor. If a current signal generated at the waveguide encoun- ters the externally applied magnetic field of the positioning element, mechanical feedback is produced in the waveguide.
