In today's robotic applications, the shift from traditional optical measurement systems to magnetic measurement solutions is becoming increasingly evident. Magnetic measurement technology has emerged as a key enabler in robotics, offering numerous advantages such as enhanced flexibility, superior accuracy, and reduced costs. BOGEN Electronic GmbH, based in Berlin, Germany, has developed a flexible magnetic encoder platform that provides absolute position feedback even after a power loss, eliminating the need for a time-consuming zero-return process. This makes their solution not only efficient but also cost-effective compared to other optical alternatives.
Guangzhou Zhenggao Information Technology Co., Ltd. serves as the official agent of BOGEN in China and is one of the company’s key partners in the region. With its strong technical foundation, Zhenggao has delivered effective magnetic measurement solutions to numerous robot manufacturers, significantly improving the overall efficiency of the robotics industry.
BOGEN’s absolute encoders are known for their high precision, and size remains a critical factor in their performance. The company offers the smallest magnetic encoders available on the market and can customize round magnetic scales in various configurations to meet the specific needs of robot developers, even enabling integration into the most compact robotic systems.
Among BOGEN’s flagship products are the AKS16 and AKS17, which feature a compact design and support both incremental and absolute output interfaces. Additionally, the AKP18 model, featuring a 46mm diameter round magnetic scale, provides an affordable and competitive option for robotic applications.
Another breakthrough comes from BOGEN’s XClass magnetic encoding technology, which features a magnetic pole pitch of just 80 micrometers—far more precise than conventional encoders with pitches of 1mm or 2mm. This level of precision represents a major advancement in the field.
Customer-centric by nature, BOGEN provides comprehensive and advanced technical support while maintaining strong relationships with its clients. As Dr. Torsten Becker, CEO of BOGEN, stated, “Through close collaboration with our customers, we have developed new high-quality, low-cost production equipment. We also helped another client who needed a high-precision absolute encoder in a small package. In under six months, we successfully created a custom encoder with the required output protocol, helping them produce exactly what they needed.â€
BOGEN aims to support robotic R&D projects by delivering highly accurate and cost-effective magnetic measurement solutions, ultimately enhancing the efficiency of robotic systems. The company has partnered with many robotics firms to develop a wide range of measurement solutions, covering service robots, medical robots, industrial robots, and collaborative robots.
As Mr. Kong, representative of BOGEN in China through Guangzhou Zhenggao Information Technology Co., Ltd., noted: “BOGEN is expanding its global influence and making significant progress in the robotics industry through smaller, more precise magnetic encoders. It is accelerating the transition from optical to magnetic measurement solutions. We believe that magnetic measurement will become a new trend in the industrial sector.â€
