RAFI Sensors are high-precision, industrial-grade sensor solutions that reliably measure physical quantities and integrate seamlessly into our customers’ existing systems and solutions, as they are consistently tailored to the metrological and systemic requirements of each specific application.
Examples of applications and fields of application range from force and torque sensors in the automotive industry and robotics, to strain gauge and thread sensors in the textile and food industries, to specialized sensor systems in medical technology and commercial vehicle manufacturing.
RAFI sensor solutions form the measurement basis for reliable control systems. They measure pressure, force, torque, and other physical variables with high resolution and repeatability and are developed and manufactured entirely in-house.
The key consideration is ensuring that the sensors integrate seamlessly into the customer’s overall solution. RAFI actively supports this integration process, from metrological design and mechanical and electrical integration to validation in the target system.
The systems feature long-term availability, rugged design, and deep system integration. Thanks to its in-house production, RAFI ensures an independent supply chain and the ability to provide a flexible response to customer-specific requirements – so its products perform reliably even during continuous duty under harsh industrial conditions.
RAFI also relies on its technology platforms for its sensors. The use of these platforms shortens project lead times, reduces non-recurring engineering (NRE) effort, and enhances quality through field-tested modules.
RAFI offers sensor solutions for a range of industries including mechanical and plant engineering, robotics, medical technology, telecommunications, and commercial vehicle manufacturing.
Its customers include leading international companies. Below you will find several sensor-solution projects that we have successfully implemented with our customers.
+ Precision and reliability
RAFI sensor solutions enable high-precision detection, such as the ability to distinguish between different levels of pressure in touch applications, ensuring consistent and reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
+ Integration into HMI systems
The sensors are specifically designed for seamless integration into human machine interfaces (HMIs), creating an intuitive and enhanced user experience.
+ In-house manufacturing and quality
RAFI manufactures all of its glass sensors in-house, which ensures consistently high quality and independent production. This prevents procurement problems and allows for a flexible response to customer requirements.
+ Long-term availability
Thanks to in-house production and a commitment to industrial applications, customers benefit from the long-term availability of components.
+ Ruggedness and industrial suitability
The sealed glass surface of GLASSCAPE touchscreens, which incorporate RAFI sensors, prevents the ingress of dirt, liquids, and foreign objects, making them ideal for use in harsh industrial environments.
+ Comprehensive service
RAFI offers comprehensive services throughout the entire product life cycle, from development through production, system integration, assembly, software, test concepts, and logistics, all the way through to after-sales service.
