About Global Encoder Systems
Global Encoder Systems is the international operating brand led by W+S Meßsysteme GmbH in Spaichingen, Germany. The family-run manufacturer develops optical and magnetic incremental and absolute encoders, with solid-shaft, hollow-shaft, single-turn, multi-turn, IO-Link, sine-cosine, draw-wire and explosion-protected designs. In-house code-disk production and modular construction support standard products, series production and customer-specific variants.
The group's current network includes W+S Meßsysteme in Germany, Industrial Encoder Corporation in Canada and W+S Measuring Systems in the United Kingdom. For robotics, its encoders measure movement, speed and position in industrial robot control; the same motion-feedback stack also serves servo drives, automation machinery and medical positioning systems.
