Temperature Sensors

CTS offers a broad spectrum of high-quality temperature sensing solutions. Our portfolio of temperature sensors encompasses all industry-standard design approaches.

Piezoelectric

Piezoelectric transducers are used in ultrasonic dental scalers for ultrasonic removal of plaque and calculus, which is a more efficient method than traditional scalers. Transducers are also used in ultrasonic surgery instruments, which offer numerous advantages over traditional techniques. Increased safety, visibility, precision, faster healing and more comfort for the patient are just few of the advantages. Ultrasonic surgery can be used in a number of clinical situations including bone surgery, eye surgery, sinus elevation and extractions.

Futhermore, piezos are used in ultrasound scanners for medical imaging, for example for pregnancy monitoring. With the ultrasound scanner, the sonographer operating the scanner can view an image of the fetus inside the womb. This enables the sonographer to monitor and evaluate the development of the baby during the pregnancy in a safe and easy way.
