Products & services

Rotary Encoder
FSG's Rotary Encoder series are characterised by their versatility and flexibility of use in various applications. They also demonstrate their special capabilities under difficult operating conditions. FSGRotary Encoder are manufactured with the highest precision and quality . Made in Germany

Potentiometer
FSG's potentiometer series are characterised by high precision, flexible design and versatility and can be equipped with a wire winding or a conductive plastic resistance element depending on the application and Design - Made in Germany

Inclination Sensors
FSG-Inclination Sensors are characterised by high-precision measuring systems, which can also be designed redundantly for safety-relevant applications and can compensate for shock loads with additional gyro sensors. This gives our Inclination Sensors a flexibility that allows them to be used in almost all applications. - Made in Germany

Draw-Wire Encoders
FSG wire-actuated encoders are characterised above all by their modular design and flexible construction. This means that FSG-Rotary Encoder or commercially available encoder solutions can be easily adapted via a coupling or gearbox mount. With different design variants and measuring ranges, the FSG-Draw-Wire Encoders suitable for almost all areas of application. - Made in Germany

Spring cable reels
In addition to signal transmission, FSG spring cable reels are also used for length and angle measurement. The measurement data and control signals are routed via a special electrical cable and tapped via a multi-pole slip ring body. Spring cable reels are mainly used for measuring telescopic arms and jibs in crane systems and lifting platforms as well as for controlling stage systems in event technology. Due to the additional use of layer winders, a high precision in length measurement is achieved - Made in Germany

Joysticks
FSG joysticks are characterised by flexibility, versatility, durability and also the possibility of use in safety-relevant applications. All joysticks work with non-contact inductive or magnetic measuring systems, which are designed redundantly for machine operation. With the compact series, signal specifications can be made from up to three actuation directions, especially also for use in radio remote controls. The modular design of the premium series allows the user to choose from 5 handle models to determine his own design and the handle configuration adapted to his application. In addition, individually equipped FSG handle models can also be used for joysticks of other makes. - Made in Germany

Foot pedal
FSG foot pedal encoders are characterised by a modular, extremely robust and, above all, flat design. Wear-free, magnetic measuring systems are used for the analogue or digital signal output, which are designed redundantly for safety-relevant applications. The main areas of application are construction machinery, stacker cranes and special vehicles in logistics and transport, as well as aerial work platforms.

Wind Sensors
FSG-Wind Sensors are used to record and monitor wind speed and direction. In the robust versions with central mounting for base or standpipe mounting or with pendulum device, especially for mounting on crane jibs, the sensors can be used universally in all areas of application. The Wind Sensors are usually equipped with a wear-free, magnetic measuring system, on request also in redundant design and with additional reed contact for wind detection even when the supply voltage is switched off, or available as a design with tachogenerator for the application without additional voltage supply.

Wire-actuated encoder of the SL00 Basic series from FSG
FSG draw-wire encoders are known worldwide for their reliability in measuring linear movements in various industries, such as construction machinery, industrial plants, rail vehicle construction and shipbuilding. The SL00 Basic series is a special highlight thanks to its high level of precision. SL00 comes in three series (Premium, Compact and Basic) that differ in body material and size, but the SL00 Basic model is particularly sought after for its lightness and suitability for places with limited space. Automated plants, mobile machinery, shipbuilding and medical equipment are some typical applications where the SL00 Basic series is used. The series can be combined with FSG or other encoders and offers measuring lengths of up to 10 m, available signal outputs, various encoder options and a typical service life of up to 1 million load cycles. Special requests are also considered. The focus of this series is automation: Due to the availability of measuring lengths of up to 10 m, available signal outputs and various rotary encoder options, the SL00 Basic series is ideal for use in automated applications. With its high level of precision and reliability, it contributes to increased efficiency and supports users in optimizing processes.
