Linear encoders convert an angular position into a digital or analog electrical signal. Servotecnica offers linear encoders with different operating principles depending on the application and environmental requirements. The catalog includes the most common solutions, such as optical, magnetic, and inductive, but also an innovative patented technology, the Giant Magneto Impedance (GMI) from Flux GmbH, which combines magnetic and inductive technologies.
Such encoders can be either absolute or incremental.
