About

I founded AD-TEC after more than 20 years in magnetomechanical sensing because I kept running into the same problem: the best applications for this technology were being left unsolved. We build magnetomechanical force and torque sensors that turn the component itself into the sensor. No strain gauges, no bonded elements, no rotating interfaces. The shaft, flange, or structural element becomes the main measurement element. Our current focus markets are eBike, industrial bolting, railway, wind energy, and robotics. We are actively expanding into agriculture, fitness equipment, motorsport, and aerospace. The common thread across all of them is that each needs sensing that survives the real world, not just the lab. We do not accept the status quo in sensor integration. We rethink it.
