TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) announces that its subsidiary Tronics Microsystems will exhibit at booth #2569 at the Offshore Technology Conference 2025 from May 5-8, 2025. The event will take place at NRG Park in Houston, Texas, and will feature a wide range of innovative solutions for the future of offshore energy.
Tronics will showcase its high-performance MEMS inertial sensors and spotlight a high-temperature MEMS accelerometer for inclination measurement in directional drilling applications. Leveraging a strong track record in serving demanding aerospace and railway markets, Tronics will demonstrate how its industry-unique closed-loop sensor’s architecture paves the way to a new generation of drilling guidance tools operating under high temperature, vibrations, and shock conditions.
Attendees can also look forward to a live demo of a miniature north-seeking MEMS gyroscope enabling precise azimuth measurement in downhole survey tools.
