Position feedback and angle sensors for electric actuators

Components for reliable position detection, analog feedback and integration into customer-side control systems.

Feedback

Reliablely detect and output positions

Position feedback components provide position information for customer control systems. Depending on the actuator, potentiometers, Hall-effect absolute encoders or current outputs can be used.
