Where are Northstar encoders used?

Northstar encoders, magnetic and optical, are used in harsh environments. An important link between the mechanical and electronic parts of any measuring device are sensors. Dynapar’s Northstar encoders are considered the most reliable encoders for demanding applications. When it comes to measuring rotational motion, Dynapar sensors are recognized as the most reliable.

For the most accurate measurement of angular velocity in difficult operating conditions, Northstar encoders have proven themselves to be the best. The indicators obtained through measurement are used to solve various applied problems. There are such systems for measuring angular velocity as magnetic, optical, inductive, capacitive. Northstar encoders use an optical and magnetic measurement system. If we talk about the optical measurement system, then a metal or plastic disk is attached to the shaft without any gaps using a special coupling. The encoder housing protects the sensor from various substances getting inside during operation. When using magnetic probing, the sensors become as reliable and vibration-resistant as possible.
