Our Dynamic TILTIX inclinometers provide reliable clean tilt measurement during dynamic movements. With the new J1939 interface and well-established CANopen interface, POSITAL’s tilt sensors are ideal for applications in mobile machinery applications like excavators, trucks, and the construction machinery market. These products combine electro-mechanical accelerometers and gyroscopes to provide accurate measurements, even if the instruments are subject to strong accelerations. Additional J1939 PGNs transmits angle values, gyro rotation rates, and accelerations for all axes.

Cobots, or collaborative robots, are a robotic system designed to work directly with humans. This combination can greatly increase productivity. These robotic systems are known for being smaller, safer, and easier to use. POSITAL kit encoders provide the critical feedback needed to make sure the work is done efficiently and safely. Hollow Shaft Kit Encoders are designed to be integrated into the arm of the robot, allowing for the routing of cables and conductors through the encoder body. These encoders also afford turns-counting functionality measurement range based on our patented energy harvesting technology. No battery, no gears, and no bearings equate to decades of service-free operation.
