The name “MagCanica”, short for magnetomechanics, reflects MagCanica’s dedication to the advancement, development, and proliferation of new sensors and associated measurement systems based on magnetomechanical principles. Magnetomechanics is the specific branch of applied physics that concerns itself with the natural interactions that occur in many materials between their mechanical and magnetic properties. Thanks to its naturally wireless mode of operation, magnetomechanics is a technology ideally suited to sensors used to instrument rotating machinery for high performance applications and the most challenging environments. MagCanica’s core technology is a magnetomechanically based truly non-contact, non-invasive torque sensor system.
MagCanica is a globally recognized leader for in-platform torque measurement on high performance applications across the aerospace and defense, automotive and motorsport, and energy and industrial sectors. MagCanica was founded in the year 2000 and is based in San Diego, California (USA). Drawing on the extensive educational background and practical experience of a group of highly talented mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, MagCanica has distinguished itself by solving some of the most challenging torque measurement problems facing customers across powertrain and transmission applications with the most demanding conditions worldwide.
