In today's fast paced world ensuring efficient and safe operation of complex machine processes is critical. That's where OMRON's motion control sensors come in.

At RS we have an excellent range of motion control sensors by OMRON so you can find exactly what you need to keep a close eye on the movement, positioning and speed of your machinery and equipment.

What are Motion Control Sensors?

This type of sensor monitors changes in position, speed and acceleration for machines and objects, providing vital data that allows you to control your processes more effectively and identify issues. These sensors can use different types of technology to perform their function, e.g. incremental encoders and absolute coders are key examples of motion control sensors.

Where are they used?

You'll find these sensors widely used in industries such as automation and robotics, as well as areas like construction, automotive, aerospace, transportation and healthcare.

OMRON's motion control sensor portfolio at RS includes rotary incremental and absolute encoders that offer high precision detection. Their sensors come in a range of resolutions, such as high-resolution models with 2000 pulses per revolution. Other advantages include: up to IP65 environmental ratings, shock and vibration resistance, compact and lightweight designs, and sealed bearings. Choose from a variety of series like E6B2, E6C2, E6A2, E6F, E6C3 and E6CP to find the right motion control sensor for your application.

OMRON's industrial automation solutions are designed to help you optimise and streamline your processes, keeping downtime to a minimum and boosting efficiency. Their mission is to improve lives and contribute to a better society, so you can trust that their products are built with high-quality and high-performance in mind.
