Medical
To obtain the precise positioning required for medical applications, RLS encoders are an excellent solution — combining miniature size with high accuracy and non-contact reliability.
Key features
Non-contact sensing
No mechanical wear ensures long service life in surgical robots and diagnostic equipment.
High resolution
Up to 20-bit resolution supports the sub-degree accuracy demanded by robotic surgery and therapy equipment.
