Integrated encoders enhance your linear motion applications with feedback information

Imagine how useful it would be to monitor speed, direction, distance and position for your linear motion applications. These benefits can be easily realized with the simple integration of encoders into any Thomson stepper motor linear actuator configuration (MLS, MLN or MLA). Encoders, which are seamlessly pre-assembled onto the rear of motors, translate rotary motion into a digital signal to deliver real-time feedback information.

Countless industries benefit from encoder technology – from mission-critical machines in the most rugged environments to routine workplace devices that demand uncompromising repeatability.
