Photoelectric encoders are used to convert working parts (machine tools, robots etc.); angular or linear displacements into electrical signals containing information about the magnitude and direction of the displacement. After further signal processing by the numeric control devices (processor complexes, digital read-out devices), this information is used to control the moving parts. 

Encoders are commonly used in machine tools and other devices that rely upon accuracy and precision. 

ORLIN Technologies Ltd are able to supply bespoke encoders or parts to fit your existing system, or can provide a complete solution. 

The range we supply includes photoelectric and magnetic linear, rotary and angle encoders. We also provide digital readout devices compatible with encoders.
