Some designers continue to specify linear encoders for applications in which magnetostrictive sensors would work, the former is a familiar technology. However, as we'll explore, magnetostrictive ...

The linear encoders are used with magnetic bands that are attached to the mounting surface and protected by a stainless-steel cover. The encoder's resolution is up to 5 µm with quadruple evaluation, ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders handle high-res needs in dirty jobs.

NUMERIK JENA, known for high quality smaller package-size linear and rotary encoders, has now developed two families of absolute linear encoders to fit into tight spaces.

The RSLM linear encoders are a new addition to Renishaw’s SiGNUM range of optical encoders. The company said the RSLM linear encoders overcome limitations of glass scale with superior durability, ...
