Position sensors AWE 508 series

AWE 508 series wire encoders convert linear motion into incremental digital pulses. They have different stroke lengths up to 8000mm. Optionally other resolutions, cable lengths and socket connectors can be requested.

They make measurement by pulling and rewinding stainless steel wire. Usage is practical and usage area isquite wide. By connecting to a counter or position controller, they become a perfect system in high resolutions for position control in wood processing, marble machines, glass processing machines and other machines.
