ELGO’s magnetic measuring systems enable precise and reliable positioning and speed detection even in very dynamic applications. They are therefore predestined for use on linear and rotary direct drives.
The non-contact, magnetic measuring systems meet the high requirements of industrial drive technology in terms of precision, insensitivity to external influences, shock and vibration resistance. The wear-free operation contributes significantly to increasing plant efficiency and thus availability.
Depending on the application, ELGO sensors are equipped with magnetically coded linear (magnetic tape) or rotary (magnetic ring) measuring elements. In addition, ELGO offers customer-specific solutions, for example in the form of houseless encoders (PCB solutions), which are predestined for very small and compact designs.

- Flexible installation and handling
- Long service life
- Low total cost
- Incremental or absolute measurements possible
- Customized design possible (PCB solutions)
ENCODERS FOR LINEAR DRIVES AND LINEAR MOTORS
Magnetic INCREMENTAL length measuring systems. See range here
Magnetic ABSOLUTE length measuring systems. See range here
ENCODERS FOR TORQUE MOTORS
Single-turn absolute encoder with 16,000 measuring steps/revolution to EMAX-RO
High-resolution incremental encoders are basically also suitable for rotary applications to incremental sensors
MAGNETIC RINGS
In addition to a large number of standard sizes, we also offer customer-specific geometries. There are few limitations in the design of the magnetic patterns. Single or multi-track patterns, incremental or reference patterns, different design or number of reference marks, vernier patterns, coded key points or PRC patterns, everything is possible and can be customized.
