Accurate linear measurement is essential for many production processes. POSITAL’s measuring wheel encoders combine proven incremental technology with flexible configuration options, making it easy to adapt to different materials, speeds and application requirements.

Reliable Measurement Directly on the Material

Direct contact measurement ensures high accuracy by measuring directly on the material instead of the drive system. Spring-loaded mounting maintains consistent contact with the material, reducing slippage and enabling reliable speed and position feedback – even with varying surfaces and conditions.

Flexible Design for Easy Integration

With programmable resolution and configurable outputs, these encoders can be quickly adapted to different control systems. A wide range of measuring wheel sizes, surface profiles and mounting options allows easy integration into diverse machine designs and production setups.

Typical Applications

• Cut-to-length systems (textile, wood, metal, paper, plastics)
• Conveyor speed and position monitoring
• Packaging and food processing machinery
