After our long-time and reliable partner LTN Servotechnik GmbH in Otterfing discontinued the in-house production of incremental encoders, we were approached by several well-known customers for replacement deliveries and special solutions.

Since a large number of the encoders which we supplied at that time had very customer-specific features such as:
-
Inch dimensions of the connecting dimensions (shafts, threads, pitch circles, centering diameter)
-
Design of special torque supports of all kinds
-
All kinds of special plugs and cables
-
Special line numbers (e.g. 2164 lines for a specific gearbox)
-
Robust tandem design with different line number combinations
-
Indication of the zero pulse by an LED on the encoder - visible from the outside
-
Additional tracks for extended zero pulses
-
Additional tracks for a different number of lines (including the three channels A, B and Ref.)
-
Special shafts (e.g. with external thread for shaft ends according to DIN 332 form DS)
-
Combinations with slip rings
-
Combinations with resolvers for safety-related applications
It took some time to find a partner who is able to manufacture the sensors according to the technical and quality requirements.
It is a pleasure for us to be able to inform you now: the time has come. The first two series of special encoders produced by us have been tested by the customers, approved by the quality control department and delivered to the end customers together with the first machines.
As the first steps have successfully been taken, we would like to invite you - if you have a need for unique selling points and are looking to use them - to discuss your requirements with us.
