Magnetic encoders
Robust encoders for harsh environments

Designed for use in applications such as:

  • industrial automation and assembly systems
  • metalworking
  • stone-cutting, sawing
  • textiles
  • plastics processing
  • woodworking
  • packaging
  • electronic chip / board production
Custom solutions

Experience and knowledge combined with innovative ideas enable RLS to offer custom product solutions to match customer's needs and meet the increasing demand for reliable, low cost, rotary and linear encoding.

Choose from absolute or incremental, linear or rotary, encoders :
Linear incremental encoders
  • Linear scales are used where straight-line position information is needed - usually X, Y or Z axes.
  • Incremental (standard and miniature) encoders are used in applications where instant and accurate relative position is needed, in either analogue or digital format.

Rotary incremental encoders
  • OnAxis and magnetic ring incremental encoders are used for motion control and position feedback even in harshest environments.
  • Incremental encoders bring reliable, high-speed operation in on-axis and off-axis applications.

Linear absolute encoders
  • Linear scales are used where straight-line position information is needed - usually X, Y or Z axes.
  • Absolute encoders are used in applications that need a high speed unique digital output for each position and offer functional immunity from power interruptions.
