HEIDENHAIN's newly developed EBI 1135 encoders are the first generation of inductive multiturn rotary encoders with battery buffering. They are some of the world's smallest absolute rotary encoders and are an ideal solution for highly dynamic servo motors of small size for automation technology and industrial robots. Read more »
Leine & Linde's MRI 2000 encoder is designed as a ring segmented into pieces to facilitate installation and service. Its interfaces are designed for long distance transmission, making it ideal for crane applications or turbine designs where the encoder signals need to be transferred from the top of the tower down to the ground.
