SEL infinite resolution encoders (sine/cosine output) are used in very high resolution applications such as pre-press typesetters, optical scanners and monochromators.

Integral processors make all-electronic multi-turn encoders possible, replacing large, expensive gear-based mechanical designs. These encoders can be field programmable for use on lead screws, rack & pinion, cable / tape spools, rotary tables, and tool changer turrets.

Fiberoptic link encoders can be applied in electrically noisey environments such as heavy machine tools, plasma arc equipment and automatic welding gear. The fiberoptic cable accomodates up to four incremental encoders and can be run through power supply line conduits, reducing system cost and complexity. Fiberoptic transmission allows remote sensing over long distances without concern for ground potentials, lightning strikes and other disturbances.

Although these products represent standard designs, there are no restrictions on specifying custom waveforms, linecounts, electronics, supply voltages and mounting configurations. Please contact our applications engineering department, we'll be most pleased to quote your special needs.
