Celesco Transducer Products

What Celesco Transducer Products does

Celesco Transducer Products, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Chatsworth, California, designs and manufactures linear and rotary measurement transducers used for position feedback in industrial process control and robotics applications. The product line addresses harsh-environment sensing requirements typical of factory automation, machine tooling, and robotic assembly, where reliable displacement and angle measurement are critical to control loops. Celesco operates as a specialty transducer brand inside the broader Measurement Specialties sensor portfolio of TE Connectivity (NYSE: TEL), and therefore benefits from the parent's vertically integrated manufacturing, global engineering footprint of approximately 10,000 electrical and mechanical engineers, and distribution across roughly 130 countries through TE Store, LADD Store, NexFront Store, and authorized distributors.
