Position sensors

Position sensor devices detect movement/ distance or displacement of an object, converting it into an output signal’

These products detect movement/ distance or displacement of an object in either a rotary or a linear motion, converting this into an output signal suitable for processing transmission or control depending on the application.

Our range from leading suppliers, covers a number of types of position sensors including; linear position, proximity, rotary hall effect sensors all available in both contacting and non-contacting technologies.

This comprehensive choice means you can ensure the most accurate and reliable measurements for any application you require. All built for precise, long-lasting performance.

Custom sensor solutions

Both standard and custom sensing solutions are available, and with our own team of experts we can take specifications into account during the design process, enabling you to have a tailored solution that’s the best fit for your application. We will work with you to find a cost-effective solution to cover your application needs.

Custom linear and rotary potentiometers can be used for harsh environment aerospace applications including flight controls, and valve position measurement as well as medical applications and Industrial OEM equipment, from forklifts, hydraulic lifts, and oil and gas drilling equipment.

Encoders

Encoders

These encoders employ magnetic-based technology reaching multiple channel outputs with resolutions topping 10,000 pulses per revolution. Unique design eliminates the challenge and expense of conventional encoder bearing systems along with associated brackets, couplers and mounts. Explore technology

Fibre optic sensors

Fibre optic sensors

Sensor technology based on the light absorption/ transmission properties of gallium arsenide (GaAs), these optical sensors have an optical fibre connected to a light source to allow for detection in tight spaces or where a small profile is beneficial. Explore technology

Linear position sensors and transducers

Linear position sensors and transducers

Accurately measure in a linear motion with position transducers offering excellent repeatability and accuracy with stroke lengths up to 1 metre. These are available in both contacting and non-contacting technologies and offer friction free magnetic coupling for extremely long-life cycles. Explore technology

Rotary sensors and encoders

Rotary sensors and encoders

These sensors provide feedback on the movement of a rotating object or device (either single turn (up to 360°) or multi-turn (over 360°) such as the shaft of a motor and converts the angular position of the object into an analogue or digital output that can then establish its position or speed.
