Netzer Precision Motion Sensors Overview
Netzer Precision Position Sensors designs, manufactures, and supplies high-end absolute position encoders based on its innovative Electric Encoder technology. This patented, high-performance, digital technology is used in a wide variety of applications worldwide. Netzer offers standard, off-the-shelf products as well as designs tailored to specific customer requirements. The company’s product portfolio includes a range of rotary encoders suited for applications ranging from harsh environments and defense, industrial automation, and collaborative and medical robotics to unmanned vehicles, aerospace, and special low-orbit and deep-space missions. The Electric Encoder’s unique contactless core and hollow shaft configuration supports the lowest possible axial space requirements and enhances reliability by eliminating the degradation mechanism. Other cutting-edge features include zero magnetic signature, insensitivity to EMI/RFI and magnetic fields, low weight, low inertia, and a narrow profile (≤10 mm).
