Rotary and linear, absolute and incremental, analog and digital, standard and customized, Netzer’s world-wide patented rugged high performance Electric Encoder™ technology suits applications ranging from space and avionics, through defense and instrumentation to automotive.
Originally developed for, and restricted to, specialized defense applications, our Electric encoder™ technology has proven its many advantages in a diverse range of applications.
Our non-contact, absolute-position, Electric encoder™ technology relies on interaction between measured displacement and an internally shielded, space/time modulated, electric field, and offers a features unsurpassed by traditional encoders (optical and magnetic), resolvers, or Inductosyns®.
Our high resolution and accuracy rotary Electric Encoder™ is tolerant to contamination, condensation, magnetic fields, shock, vibration and temperature extremes. Its low profile, weight, and power consumption is unmatched by any other technology.
Our linear Electric Encoder™, available in both absolute and incremental versions, is tolerant to contamination, condensation, magnetic fields, shock, vibration and temperature extremes. It provides micron resolution and is tolerant to air gap variations.
The simple structure of both the rotary and linear versions of Electric Encoder™ lends itself to cost effective customization in terms of mechanical dimensions, resolution, accuracy, packaging, and power consumption.
