The Industrial Encoder Division (IED) of BEI Sensors and Systems Company is located in a manufacturing and office complex in Goleta, California, just minutes from Santa Barbara.

We manufacture industrial-quality rotary optical shaft angle encoders. Our custom-designed factory and office facilities provide an efficient flow of production and support services, and all of our critical manufacturing processes are performed on site. Our products feature a wide range of resolutions from 1 cycle per turn up to 50,000 cycles per turn, including commutation tracks for motor control. Special products include explosion-proof, intrinsically safe, and extra heavy duty models. Encoders which include nickel plating and splash-proof construction for washdown are also available.

High manufacturing standards are ensured by an exacting quality control program that inspects dozens of individual electrical parameters on every encoder produced, as well as confirming each unit’s mechanical compliance with its particular specifications. Our standard two-year warranty testifies to the effectiveness of this program.

Experienced applications engineers and a well-trained order entry staff are always eager to assist you in specifying and ordering a unit that will meet your exact requirements. Direct telephone consultation with IED engineers is the best way to take advantage of the many variations and options available on our complete line of encoders, and we provide this high level of service to an active customer base of thousands of companies.

This pre-sale service, coupled with guaranteed on-time shipment and the assurance of top quality, embodies our commitment to making customer satisfaction our top priority. IED is proud to be the leader in the industrial encoder marketplace.
