Welcome to Everight Position, a leader in precision rotary sensor technology. Our mission is to deliver high-performance rotary sensors, both in standard and custom configurations, to meet the exacting demands of rotational measurements in various industries.
Navigating encoder options can feel overwhelming, but with some guidance, the task becomes manageable. By beginning with the mechanical aspects and progressively addressing the electronics and communication protocols, we can systematically narrow down the choices to find the perfect solution.
Coveted for high-precision applications, these sensors rely on intricate light patterns to discern rotation, proving invaluable in scenarios where meticulous details matter most. Their application extends to industries where precision is non-negotiable.
These sensors leverage magnetic fields for detection and are particularly valued for their low cost, yet robustness in challenging environments. This makes them particularly suitable for applications where resilience and consistent performance in harsh conditions are crucial.Recent developments in TMR( tunnel magnetoresistance effect) sensors look to build upon the success Hall effect sensors have had over the past two decades. TMR offers a modest improvement in accuracy and resolution, while significantly reducing power consumption and temperature drift.
This technology utilizes the electrical property of capacitance to detect changes in rotary position.. Capacitive sensors are known for their lightweight, compact size, high accuracy and sensitivity, making them particularly suitable for applications requiring fine measurement and control. They excel in environments where factors like dust,, or temperature variations are prevalent, offering reliable performance under challenging conditions.
Inductive sensors operate on the same electromagnetic induction principle as a resolver, but uses PCB traces rather than coil windings. These sensors are highly reliable and robust, as the rotor and stator can be potted in an epoxy-resin, offering protection against water, mud, dirt and other contaminants. They are ideal for environments where durability and resistance to physical impacts or harsh conditions are essential.
In these critical fields, our sensors are integral to mission success. They deliver exact measurements for flight control, satellite positioning, navigation, and weapon systems. Durability and precision define our rotational position sensors and rotary shaft encoders, ensuring reliability under the demanding conditions of defense and aerospace operations.
Our sensors streamline production and improve operational efficiency in manufacturing. They are crucial for precision tasks such as assembly line automation, conveyor speed control, and CNC machine alignment. Supporting Industry 4.0 initiatives, they enable smarter, interconnected manufacturing processes where precision and speed are key.
In robotics, our sensors enhance the precision and efficiency of industrial applications, including material handling and welding. In the burgeoning field of surgical robotics, they provide the control and accuracy necessary for delicate medical procedures, directly impacting patient outcomes. These applications underscore the role of our sensors in advancing both industrial and medical robotic technologies.
Zettlex IncOders are non-contact devices for precise angle measurement. They use an inductive technique, similar to that used by electrical transformers. IncOders may be considered as an inductive encoder. IncOders are well suited to harsh environments-where potentiometers, optical or capacitive devices might be unreliable. IncOders have two main parts each shaped like a flat ring: a Stator and a Rotor. The Stator is powered and measures the angular position of the passive Rotor. A big bore and low axial height allows easy integration with through-shafts, slip-rings, direct drivemotors, optical-fibres, pipes or cables.
The DS-130 is a member of the DS series of Electric Encoders a product line based on Netzer Precision Motion Sensor proprietary technology. Lightweight, compact and high performance (up to 21 bit resolution) these encoders provide unparalleled performance. The Electric Encoder is unique in being holistic, i.e., its output reading is the averaged outcome of the whole area of the rotor, This feature makes the Electric Encoder™ forgiving to mounting tolerances, mechanical wander etc. The absence of components such as ball bearings, flexible couplers, glass disc, light sources and detectors, along with very low power consumption makes the Electric Encoder virtually failure free. The internally shielded, DC operated Electric Encoder includes an electric field generator, a field receiver, a sinusoidal shaped dielectric rotor, and processing electronics. The output of Electric Encoder is a digital serial with absolute position single turn. The combination of precision, low profile, low weight and high reliability have made Netzer Precision encoders particularly suitable to a wide variety of industrial automation applications.
