Position transmitter is a robust industrial sensor designed to detect and transmit the position of moving components such as stacker-reclaimer booms, similar arms, buckets or rotating structures under harsh operating conditions. It converts mechanical displacement or angular movement into electrical signals (4–20mA, voltage, digital output, etc.), enabling real-time position feedback for machine control, automation and safety systems.
Provides precise real-time position feedback, enabling smooth motion control and reduced operator error.
Continuous position monitoring supports early fault detection and optimized maintenance, minimizing unexpected machine stoppages.
The rugged industrial design ensures stable operation and long service life.


Output signal (position signal) is selectable from current (DC4-20mA), potentiometer, synchro, encoder, absolute encoder, etc.

In addition to the position signal output, position limit is available by integrating cam drum switches.

In addition to the standard shaft connection to input the mechanical movement, various options such as wheel contacts, rope winding, etc. available.
Position transmitter is basically consisting of an input shaft, a reducer unit and a transmitter.
It operates by mechanically coupling to a moving component and converting its linear or angular displacement into an electrical signal.
The mechanical motion is transmitted to the internal reducer unit through the input shaft, and then the gear-reduced rotation is transmitted to the built-in position transmitter.
The built-in transmitter then converts the transmitted rotation into a output signal (4–20 mA, voltage or digital signal) proportional to the measured position.
