Get to the Pulse of Sensing With POSITAL Kit Encoders

October 13, 2021

POSITAL KIT encoders offer you smart, maintenance-free and cost-efficient solutions for the most challenging tasks in real time motion feedback. Fusion of sensing technologies results in an unprecedented hollow shaft design with uninterruptable, battery-free multiturn function, powered by Wiegand pulse with every rotation. Gear-free, compact and economically optimized concept is ideal for integration into servo, stepper motors and robotic arms of various mechanical configurations. Enhanced signal processing software enables high-resolution rotary position measurement. Explore the three kit-encoder series and their unique features.
