OHV (Off Highway Vehicles)

Position control sensors for automated guided vehicles

Thanks to the technological progress in the field of automation, it’s possible nowadays to control and operate by remote or automatically the direction and the movement of the machines.
This kind of innovation is applied both in traditional sectors like agriculture and the lifting and handling of soil and materials (i.e. diggers, bulldozers and excavators etc.) as well as in well-advanced industries like AGV (automated guided vehicles) which, due to the purpose of their use, require an elevated level of accuracy and preciseness in the measurement of their movements.
To ensure an optimal reliability of this machinery, which operate both indoor and outdoor and, by consequence, at different temperature and conditions, Eltra has developed several lines of encoders that guarantee accurate and rapid change of position.
