These products are sold through Micronor, a division of Photon Control.
Rotary Absolute Encoders
Fiber Optic Rotary Encoder measures absolute angular position from 0° to 360° with 13/14 bit resolution and multiturn tracking up to 12 bits (4096 turns). The system can operate at full accuracy at speeds > 2500 rpm and distances > 300 meters. This sensor system uses a novel optical spectral imprint technique.
Linear Absolute Encoders
Our Linear Absolute Encoder solutions are designed for applications where linear position must be precisely monitored, and electromagnetic or high voltage immunity is required. The encoders provide 14-bit resolution and are ideal solutions for Medical Devices, MRI guide surgical and biopsy robots, and Functional MRI (fMRI) research.
