Sensors for Defense Systems Applications
Modern defense systems often employee innovative technologies. Many of these technically advanced systems rely on sensors during the research and development stage or even through to field applications. Stellar Technology’s comprehensive selection of pressure transducers and pressure transmitters, load cells, force sensors, reaction torque transducers, temperature sensors, and LVDT displacement sensors can provide the design engineers and technical specialists with many sensor application solutions; land-based, airborne, marine, or in space.
STI’s engineering expertise, proven sensor technology, field experience, and manufacturing capabilities provide customers with high reliability sensors for the broad range of defense applications. Our engineering and manufacturing center in Amherst, New York, is uniquely designed to deliver both standard products and custom-engineered special products. Rely on STI to add value to your test and measurement solution.
STI provides sensors for a variety of military and defense applications.
