Technology

Netzer Precision Motion Sensors has taken a revolutionary position sensing technology, originally developed for specialized defense applications, and made it available for today’s broader range of military and aerospace motion control requirements. Standard and customized rotary and linear electric encoders are also applicable to medical, automotive and other applications.
The Electric Encoder™ non-contact technology relies on interaction between the measured displacement and a space/time modulated electric field. It offers a blend of features unequalled by optical, or magnetic encoders.

Advantages of Electric Encoders include:

	Simple, robust structure, with virtually no failure mechanism
	Generous mounting tolerances
	Very low weight, inertia, and profile (≤10mm)
	Ring shaped with a wide range of diameters
	Absolute position output over 360º rotation range
	Precision to 0.001º
	Operation from -55ºC to +125ºC
	Dual and triple redundancy options
	No magnetic signature
	High tolerance to conensation and contaminants
	Insensitivity to EMI/RFI and magnetic fields
	High customizabilty
	Lowest power consumption
	Ultra-high-speed options
