OPTOCODE encoders have a wide range of mechanical and electronic configurations available, including single- and multi-turn versions (up to 16,384 rotations).



POSITAL's OPTOCODE (Hamilton, NJ) absolute rotary encoders are available with full support for DeviceNet and EtherNet/IP interface standards. This ensures that these devices can be readily integrated into control systems based on Rockwell Automation/Allen-Bradley and Schneider PLC’s, providing cost-effective solutions in areas as diverse as robotic cells, packaging machinery, and baggage handling systems. OPTOCODE encoders:

  • Are programmable in compliance with CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) specifications. Combine precision (up to 216 steps per turn), durability, and outstanding versatility.
  • Have a wide range of mechanical and electronic configurations available, including single- and multi-turn versions (up to 16,384 rotations).
  • Have multiple flange and shaft configurations and a variety of casing materials, ranging from low-cost aluminum to rugged stainless steel.
