Housings
Full Family Spec (6Meg)

Joral has developed a line of rugged-duty shafted rotary encoders designed to meet the demanding needs of the controls, power equipment, hydraulics and off-road vehicle markets.
Joral rugged-duty encoders are perfect for use in harsh applications where dirt, moisture, vibration and shock are factors.
A wide range of sizes, output features and connector choices are available for both incremental and absolute position sensing.
Check out the Joral Advantage of features and functions available in our new line of encoders.

  • Fully Sealed Electronics
  • Captive Shaft Design
  • Incremental and Absolute Position
  • Diagnostic LED Indicators
  • Bullet-Proof Electronics
 

J1939 Boom Angle Sensor Now Available

Joral has released their new 1939 Boom Angle Sensor for use on J1939 Can Bus systems. The rugged-duty sensor consists of two small and lightweight 3-axis angular sensors. One sensors mounts to the cab or base and the other mounts to the boom. The two parts of the sensor communicate allowing the device to compute relative and absolute angles. Data is transmitted on the industry standard J1939 Can Bus to provide a system with information for making control and loading decisions.
The Joral Boom Angle Sensor can be applied to a variety of applications where the angular position of two moving parts is important.

Joral Introduces New Products at 2009 Sensor Expo
CHICAGO, IL -- The Joral booth drew crowds at the 2009 Sensor Expo at Rosemont Exposition Center. The new 18mm and 30mm Prox Encoders were introduced adding to the already exciting lineup of Hockey Puck encoders.  Customers are finding it easy to use the Prox Encoders because of the standard packaging.  Engineers and designers are excited about available customizations for integrating the sensors into their products.
Call Joral today for more information or to discuss your application.
 

Joral Delivers for Drive-Shaft Applications
Joral is addressing the need in the drive-shaft sensing market with the combination of a split-collar magnet assembly and the 18mm encoder. This combination provide an easy mounting method and high pulse count for quality speed and direction sensing. Collars can be provided in various diameters or materials depending on your needs.
Call Joral today for more information or to discuss your application.

The Prox Encoder  18mm and 30mm
"NON-CONTACT!"

Joral is pushing non-contact encoders to a new and smaller level.  Our innovative Hockey Puck non-contact technology has been applied to standard sensor packages of 18 and 30mm diameters.  These encoders mount like a prox sensor, but are actually high resolution encoders.  They come complete with LED indicators showing power and encoder status signals.
These encoders are magnetically based sensors that do not require a mechanical connection or shaft coupling.  No more shaft problems.  No more worn bearings. Our Hockey Puck sensing technology tolerates misalignment and distance variations.
  • Senses Rotation non-contact

  • Threaded Barrel

  • Up to 3000 RPM.  Up to 8192 positions per revolution

  • Easy Installation

  • LED Indicators

  • Absolute Position or Incremental Outputs

  • Rugged-Duty Construction

  • Tolerates Misalignment

Magnet Assemblies make Installations a Breeze

Joral is supplying several types of magnet assemblies for use with the non-contact 'Hockey Puck' and 'Prox Encoder' lines.  High quality magnets are packaged in forms that assist in installation and ensure a good magnetic sensing field for the encoder.  Two types are shown.  The Bolt style provides a magnet pressed into the head end of a bolt so the bolt can be threaded, pushed or mated with the end of a rotating shaft.  The Sleeve or Collar style can be slide over a shaft and contains two separate magnets to provide a very strong field and provide a high degree of separation to the encoder.  Contact Joral for your special needs.

The New Explosion Proof Encoder, with NO Shaft or Bearings!

Joral is introducing an explosion proof rotary encoder for the oil and gas industry.  Named the XPHP, it is a non-contact sensor that does not require a mechanical connection or shaft coupling.  No more shaft seal problems.  No more worn bearings.  The device magnetically senses rotational motion up to 3000 RPM right through the explosion proof housing!
Patent Pending.
  • Senses Rotation right through the Housing

  • Up to 3000 RPM.  Up to 8192 positions per revolution

  • Absolute Position or Incremental Outputs

  • Easy Installation

  • Extremely Rugged-Duty Construction

  • Tolerates Misalignment

Joral Introduces Non-Contact Encoder.

Joral has developed a patent pending revolutionary new encoder called the Hockey Puck. It is non-contact to the measuring surface and compensates for mechanical misalignment. It has no shaft or bearings so the problems of drag, endplay, corrosion, side loading, and push-out have been eliminated. The user mounts a magnet on the rotating object and locates the encoder close by. Precise mounting is not required, as it will tolerate changes in distance, centering and planer tilt. This is important as the machine wears over time. Non-contact means vibration and shock from the mechanics are not transmitted directly to the electronics in the encoder. This new device will surely change the use of encoders in rough applications. Designer Kits available... Order One Today!

Position, Speed and Distance Applications

Our Joral non-contact encoders are 8192 times better than a prox sensor! Even so, they are not designed to be used for every encoder application. The non-contact encoders have a maximum speed of about 3000 rpm and typically in the area of 1/3 of a degree of resolution, depending on the strength of the magnets and their placement. The encoders are very rugged, sealed, resistant to chemicals, can be washdown and are generally used in applications where the environment often destroys other encoders. Here is a quick snapshot of a few typical applications.
