When contactless is the better connection:
Economy linear encoders from TR Electronic Contactless, wear-free, reliable The magnetostrictive linear encoders from TR Electronic operate without contact and are therefore completely wear-free. A moving permanent magnet transmits the position to the measuring system – either guided directly by the customer’s design or via a magnetic slide that is moved by the machine using […]

Safety-Certified Encoders in Machine Safety
Safety-Certified Encoders in Machine Safety Modern production lines and industrial machines must meet high standards not only for efficiency but also for safety. At this point, the control, state, and accurate detection of the position of moving parts become critical for human safety and process integrity. This is exactly where safety-certified encoders become an integral […]
Encoders Used for Position Measurement in Industrial Automation
Encoders used for position measurement in industrial automation play a vital role not only in production efficiency but also in occupational safety. Especially in systems with human-machine interaction and hazardous movements, standard encoders are no longer sufficient. In this article, we detail the main technical differences between standard (classic) encoders and safety encoders, and explain […]

Your rotary encoder has been discontinued?
Replacement encoder for existing applications as an OEM development. Time and again, manufacturers discontinue certain product series. Especially when it comes to interfaces developed many years ago, maintenance and development capacities are transferred from traditional systems to the latest technologies. The development cycles of sensor manufacturers and users are not always synchronized, meaning that there […]
What Are Absolute Encoders and Incremental Encoders? Differences and Applications
Encoders used in industrial automation systems precisely measure and control machine movements. The two most common encoder types, absolute encoders and incremental encoders, are designed to meet different needs. In this article, we will explore what these two encoder types are, their differences, and where they are used. What is an Absolute Encoder? An […]
What is a Safety Encoder?
A safety encoder is a type of encoder designed to meet safety requirements, certified according to functional safety standards such as SIL (Safety Integrity Level) or PL (Performance Level). They are especially used to enhance both system and operator safety in hazardous environments or high-risk operations. How Does It Work? Similar to traditional encoders, […]
