  • Semiconductor Industry Semiconductor Industry

    Semiconductor Industry

    Precision in the arcsecond range, 360 degree scanning, and intrinsic eccentricity correction provide the ideal basis for applications within the semiconductor industry.
  • Videography and Gimbals Videography and Gimbals

    Videography and Gimbals

    Gimbals are commonly used in photography and videography to stabilize cameras and other imaging equipment, allowing for smooth and steady footage even when the camera is moving or shaking. Enabling maximum accuracy performance within arcseconds, FLUX GMI® Angle and GMI® Rotary Encoders are designed for applications that need precise measurements but in conditions where high shocks and vibrations are common.

    Our encoders perform where others fail.

    FLUX encoders differ from conventional measuring principles by delivering the best of all worlds in one encoder. Outstanding performance in harsh environments, excellent precision, and small and narrow where conventional encoders are too large and heavy.

    The GMI® technology, developed and patented by FLUX for position measurement, capitalizes in an exceptional way the interaction between magnetic field and electromagnetic induction. It combines the hysteresis-free performance of an optical encoder with the robustness of an inductive encoder and the large mounting tolerance and working range of a magnetic encoder.
