The name "MT-Touch Sensor" came from M (METROL) and T (TOYOTA).
The precision switch was co-invented more than 20 years ago at the request for high durability and accuracy in car manufacturing lines.
The MT-Touch Sensor can show tremendous repetitive accuracy as a mechanical switch. The repetitive accuracy for the signal point is 0.0005mm (1/2 micron).
The mechanical concept of the MT-Touch Sensor applies to tool setters.
IP67 protection allows operation in harsh environments.
They are widely used not only in automobile industry but also in many other industries.
