Capacitive Electric Linear Encoders
Extraordinary performance for very high
value applications including land, sea, and air defense, aerospace,
and outer space. Rotary encoders can accommodate very large
shafts while linear encoders feature affordable very long
measuring ranges with optical accuracy. Rotaries can be had
in double and triple redundant versions. Primarily digital
outputs.
