Encoders
AKS16 / AKS16-MT
Absolute magnetic sensing head for linear and rotary scales, with a multi-turn MT variant; tiny FFC or Molex packages.
AKS17
Highest-resolution Bogen absolute head, 21 to 24 bit, for linear and rotary scales.
AKP18
Open PCB-style absolute head (IP00) at 18-20 bit for integration into OEM assemblies.
ALS21
Absolute linear magnetic read head for LMSA scales, 1 µm resolution, IP67.
xMARS
Miniature absolute head (16 x 10 x 3 mm) for ring and tape scales.
IKS9 / IKS9.1
Incremental magnetic head in plastic or die-cast housing, RS422/TTL output. Works on linear and rotary scales.

LMSI
Incremental linear magnetic tape scale with freely configurable pole pitch and up to nine tracks, supplied on long reels.
LMSA
Absolute PRC-coded two-track magnetic scale, so position is known at power-up without homing; up to 32.7 m.
LMSN
Nonius-coded absolute magnetic scale in two or three tracks for custom OEM absolute systems, read by iC-MU based heads.
LMSB
Incremental magnetic scale bar up to 2000 mm long.
RMSI
Incremental rotary magnetic ring scales in radial or axial format, with hub options and high-temperature magnet materials.
RMSN
Nonius-coded rotary magnetic scales (master/nonius tracks) for absolute angle measurement with iC-MU style heads.
