Advanced Rotary Sensor Solutions Tailored for Your Application

For us, precision isn’t just a feature—it’s the foundation. We specialize exclusively in high-performance rotary sensors because accuracy and reliability are mission-critical in the industries we serve. 

Whether it’s aerospace, automotive, medical devices, or advanced manufacturing, even the smallest deviation can lead to costly errors or compromised safety. 

That’s why we engineer both standard and custom sensor solutions designed to withstand demanding conditions while delivering consistent, repeatable measurements. 

When precision matters, Everight Position delivers.

Our Most Commonly Used Rotary Encoders

P530 is a durable, high accuracy rotary sensor designed for industrial and scientific feedback applications. The P530, like all Positek sensors, is supplied with the output calibrated to the angle required by the customer, up to 360 degrees. The sensor provides a linear output proportional with angle of rotation.

It is particularly suitable for OEMs seeking good sensor performance for arduous applications such as industrial machinery where cost is important.

Overall performance, repeatability and stability are outstanding over a wide temperature range. The P530 has a rugged stainless steel body and shaft for long service life and environmental resistance. The mounting flange is anodised aluminum. The sensor is easy to install with flange or servo mounting options, it also offers a wide range of electrical options. Sealing is IP65 or IP67 depending on selected cable or connector options, and full EMC protection built in.

POSITAL CCD Hollow Shaft Kit Encoders are ideal for Integration to motors, robot joints and other challenging installations. A large 30mm through hollow shaft diameter and a battery-free Weigand based multiturn counter make this sensor as unique as the applications it is used on.

POSITAL CCD Hollow Shaft Kit Encoders are ideal for Integration to motors, robot joints and other challenging installations. A large 50mm through hollow shaft diameter and a battery-free Weigand based multiturn counter make this sensor as unique as the applications it is used on.

P500 is a durable, affordable, high accuracy rotary sensor designed for industrial and scientific feedback applications. The P500, like all Positek sensors, is supplied with the output calibrated to the angle required by the customer, between 16 and 160 degrees. The sensor provides a linear output proportional with angle of rotation. There is a machined registration mark to identify the calibrated mid point.
