Industrial encoders are available in both absolute and incremental versions, offering a wide range of application possibilities. They support more than 15 different communication interfaces, making integration into various systems easier. POSITAL multiturn encoders do not require a battery to retain position information after power-off, as this functionality is enabled by Wiegand technology. The system provides up to 19-bit resolution, ensuring highly accurate position feedback.

Encoders designed for hazardous environments are certified according to ATEX for Zone 1/21 and 2/22 areas, and are also UL certified for Division 2 applications. A wide variety of mechanical configurations is available to meet different application requirements. Their robust design ensures high resistance to shock and vibration, guaranteeing reliable operation even under extreme conditions.

Kit encoders are modular rotary encoders without integral ball bearings. Their compact and economical design is ideal for integration into other systems, such as robotic systems, stepper motors or servo motors. POSITAL’s portfolio includes many multiturn versions without battery or gear. Fusion of sensing technologies results in unique designs with uninterruptable multiturn function, powered by Wiegand. No special equipment is required for the installation. There are various mechanical configurations starting from 22 mm outer diameter. Enhanced signal.

POSITAL‘s hollow shaft kit encoders offer a wide multiturn range without the need for a battery or gear system. They have a slim design of just 18 mm thickness. They offer a resolution of up to 19 bit and are designed for integration into hollow shaft motors and robots. In robotic systems, the hollow shaft design enables cables and compressed air to be routed inside of the robotic arm. The singleturn system is based on capacitive technology and is combined with POSITAL‘s proven Wiegand multiturn technology. Special tools or costly equipment are not required for the assembly of these kit encoders to motors.

Draw wire sensors, also called cable pull sensors, are designed to perform linear position measurement using an encoder and thus providing high accuracy sensing. Connected to a draw wire, the encoder delivers a signal proportional to the cable that is pulled out. While pinion and racks require perfect alignment and soldering, a draw wire sensor offers an easy-to-install system with a large variety of interface options. Thanks to the powerful UBIFAST configuration tool, customers can define the needed resolution after selecting the desired measuring range. It therefore answers any type of application involving linear displacement.

Inclinometers, also called tilt sensors, are designed to measure the angle of an object with respect to the force
of gravity. These tilt or level meters determine the angle orientation in space with gravity as reference and output
these values via the appropriate electrical interface. Inclinometers are easy to integrate to an application because
there is no need for mechanical linkages other than the installation itself – a real advantage for design engineers.
POSITAL’s inclinometer portfolio offers solutions for different industries to tackle all application-specific challenges.
