Novotechnik introduces new programmable angle sensors

May 5, 2020 By Mike Santora

Novotechnik-vertx-37e-cmyk-300

Novotechnik U.S. introduces the Vert-X 37E Series of programmable touchless rotary sensors. These sensors use a magnetic pick up that is secured to the rotating object, so that there is no direct mechanical linkage between the shaft and the measuring system, and therefore no wear. The Vert-X 37E Series is hermetically sealed, without any moving […]
