POSITAL Information

POSITAL designs and markets sensors for motion control and safety assurance systems. Products include rotary encoders, inclinometers, wiegand sensors, kit encoders, linear position sensors and a large variety of accessories. These products are used in a wide range of settings, from manufacturing to mining, agriculture to energy. POSITAL’s innovative product design has mastered magnetic technology and eliminated the need for compromise by developing a new generation of magnetic absolute and incremental encoders that match the performance of optical encoders. POSITAL’s ground breaking Wiegand technology has been successfully implemented in our multiturn encoders. This energy harvesting system generates short, powerful voltage pulses sufficient to power the rotation-counting electronic circuit, even when the speed of rotation is very low. This solution enables the reliable measurement of multiturn absolute positions without requiring access to an external power supply. POSITAL’s unique online product finder provides access to a huge variety of solutions without the need of specialist knowledge. Thousands of easy to-browse specific datasheets are available in 11 languages. The traditional practice of customization has been replaced by this new approach. Even with one million unique configurations available, products are ready to ship within 5 working days. POSITAL is a FRABA Group company.
