Encoders
A rich lineup, also joystick encoder availble
NIDEC COMPONENTS' rotary encoders specialize in incremental, use optical and magnetic types, feature compactness and lightweight, and provide a wide range of lineups, from low-cost products to high-resolution products.
A new addition to the lineup is the joystick encoder, a multifunctional device that integrates a joystick, push switch, and optical encoder into one package. Optimal size for panel operation, outstanding operational click / switch feeling and amazing long life have been achieved.
Due to business restructuring within the Nidec Group, we have taken over the development design / manufacturing function of encoders in addition to the existing sales in 2019. We will boldly challenge “Position Sensing”, which is a new sensing technology area for us.
With the addition of Midori Precisions Co., Ltd.—a dedicated manufacturer of potentiometers, inclinometers and encoders—to our group in 2023, we are poised to achieve further growth of the Position Sensing business by capitalizing on the powerful synergies created.
