Renishaw launched its new low temperature, true absolute position encoder at the DSEI military exhibition recently. The range of high performance position encoders are meant for tough environments and mission critical reliability, including a new low temperature absolute optical encoder with a range of serial communication protocols.

Suitable for use in demanding applications such as targeting systems, remotely-operated weapons, long-range vision systems and radar installations, Resolute extended temperature range (ETR) is the latest true absolute encoder from Renishaw, guaranteeing operation down to -40°C in non-condensing environments.
