Product
Linear Encoders
-
Linear encoders measure the position of linear axes without intervening mechanical elements. This eliminates a series of potential error sources such as backlash, pitch error, or heating of the recirculating ball screw. Wherever rigorous position accuracy and high machining speeds are needed, linear encoders are essential.

Product
Magnetic Encoders
-
The magnetic encoder detects rotational position information as changes of the magnetic field, converts them into electrical signals, and outputs them. The simplest magnetic encoder consists of a permanent magnet and a magnetic sensor.
-
Product
Absolute Encoders
-
US Digital designs and manufactures absolute encoders in both optical configurations, for the highest possible resolution and accuracy, and magnetic versions for demanding environments. In either case, absolute encoders report a shaft angle within a single 360-degree shaft rotation without stops or gaps. Unlike incremental (sometimes called "relative") encoders, absolute encoders provide true (absolute) shaft position, eliminating the need for a "home" or "zero" cycle after a supply-voltage power cycle.

External Rotary Encoders
-
External rotary encoders excel at measuring rotational motion, angular velocity, and even linear motion when combined with mechanical elements. Areas of application include electric motors, machine tools, printing machines, textile machines, robots, handling equipment, measuring devices, and inspection equipment. The high signal quality of their scanning signals enables nearly perfect speed and motion control within the control loop.
