absolute encoder
Posted: December 07, 2025Electromate adds the Netzer Precision VLP-13 to its catalog — a miniature, absolute rotary encoder engineered for space-constrained motion systems where size, precision, and reliability are essential.
Posted: February 24, 2024Netzer is proud to introduce the new VLM-60 multi-turn, hollow shaft absolute rotary encoder, the ideal solution for smooth and continuous production with limited space.
Posted: January 17, 2024Encoders are pivotal sensor components in mechatronic automation, converting mechanical motion into an electrical signal that can be interpreted for precise control and positioning of mechanical parts. This article explores various types of encoders, focusing on their unique components, advantages, and applications.

Posted: July 28, 2022An absolute encoder creates a unique position signal available anywhere along travel; its exact angle is reported when in power cycling mode. While absolute encoders measure absolute or true angular position, incremental encoders measure the actual change in angular position. And unlike absolute, incremental encoders do not generate a unique signal.

For year’s controls and systems engineers have had to balance the robustness of magnetic encoders with the performance of optical encoders. However, this is no longer the case due to recent advances in magnetic sensing technologies.
Breakthroughs in microprocessing and signal filtering have resulted in new magnetic encoders that can rival the performance of optical sensors while being more robust and compact. Learn how to select an encoder for a given application and what the future holds.
