Mobile Automation

Construction Machines

Encoders are installed in critical components of construction machinery, such as hydraulic systems, motors, and robotic arms, providing precise feedback on their position and movement. This data allows for accurate control, improved operational efficiency, and enhanced safety measures on construction sites.

Sensors for Optimize Acceleration and Deceleration
Accurate Navigation and Guidance

Cranes

Cranes and other construction machinery are required to be safe, efficient and reliable. Positioning is of prime importance, and redundant systems are often used to eliminate errors. To address this requirement the IXARC redundant encoders encoders are an excellent fit, combining redundant measurement with an easy-to-integrate interface.

Sensors for High Levels of Shock & Vibration
Increased Accuracy & Safety

Mining

In areas with flammable substances like liquids, vapors, or combustible dust, there's a risk of fires or explosions. This can happen in mines, chemical plants, oil and gas industries, as well as milling, wood, or sugar operations. Equipment in such areas should be ATEX and IECEx certified to ensure safe operation under these conditions.

Certified Sensors for Explosive Environments
Precise Positioning & Leveling

Drilling

Drill rigs, excavators, and mobile hammering systems are complex machines that must operate flawlessly in harsh conditions. ATEX certified IXARC rotary encoders ensure accurate positioning of drill heads and masts, while single and dual-axis POSITAL TILTIX inclinometers provide essential information for platform leveling and arm positioning.

Arm/boom extension

Long-boom trucks like fire trucks or concrete pumps face challenges reaching high-rise buildings over obstacles. IXARC rotary encoders on rotational joints offer data for active damping systems, while TILTIX inclinometers monitor boom arm position or aid in base leveling.
