This series of motorized, dual-axis goniometers and vertically mounted rotary stages can measure angles, identify crystals, position an object for inspection, and point a camera or laser. The lower goniometer stage features ¡À10 degrees of rotation, and the upper vertical rotary stage features a 60 mm table with 360 degrees of continuous rotation in clockwise and counterclockwise directions.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">The resolution for the goniometer (lower) stage of the AK110-10-60V dual-axis stage is 0.0007 degrees, repeatability is ¡À 0.01 degrees, and accuracy is 0.05 degrees, and the resolution for the rotary stage is 0.002 degrees, repeatability is ¡À 0.01 degrees, and accuracy is 0.05 degrees with a 10 steps-per-step micro-stepping motor driver. They are ideal for: Examining cutting edges of medical instruments, measure of radiation patterns of LEDs, estimating hyperspectral bidirectional reflectance and gloss measurements, directing lasers, aligning mirrors, and manufacturing quartz oscillator plates using quartz cutting X-rays.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Electromate adds the Netzer Precision VLP-13 to its catalog¡ªa miniature, absolute rotary encoder engineered for space-constrained motion systems where size, precision, and reliability are essential.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">As demand grows for smaller, lighter, and more precise motion control systems across robotics, aerospace, medical, and automation sectors, the VLP-13 fills a critical gap. Its ultra-compact design and high-resolution absolute feedback enable engineers to embed reliable position sensing where previously only larger encoders could fit. The contactless capacitive technology ensures durability and long-term stability, ideal for mission-critical or long-service-life applications. The features and benefits include:
Ultra-compact footprint: Outer diameter 13.5 mm, height 10.9 mm, total weight only 2g (including 250 mm cable).
High-resolution absolute feedback: Up to 19-bit resolution (single-turn), providing fine positional granularity.
Contactless capacitive sensing: Eliminates wear-prone mechanical components, immune to magnetic interference, shock, and vibration¡ªoffering long-term reliability.
Standard digital interfaces: Supports SSI and BiSS-C outputs over differential RS-422 communication.
Robust environmental performance: Rated for industrial conditions (shock, vibration, EMC), suitable for demanding applications in robotics, aerospace, and automation.
The compact size and robust design of the VLP-13 make it suitable for miniature motors and small-form-factor servo systems, articulated robotic joints where space and weight are constrained, precision motion control in automation equipment and small industrial machinery, aerospace or harsh-environment systems requiring high reliability and immunity to EMI, aerospace actuators, UAV servos and space-constrained mechanisms, medical equipment and surgical robots and high-precision automation in tight-factor devices.</span></p>
