Sensor & positioning innovations

A new range of robust magnetic rotary encoders will be launched at the show, featuring high precision up to 0.1° accuracy combined with increased environmental tolerances in a compact design. The use of magnetic technology removes the requirement for optical discs and mechanical gears and the associated potential for failure.

Additionally, fail-safe rotary encoders up to SIL 3 and matching safe speed monitor units will be on display. Photoelectric developments on offer will include the latest distance measurement sensors and a new high-performance time-of-flight area scanner.
