About Hohner Elektrotechnik
Hohner Elektrotechnik GmbH was founded in 1980 in Werne an der Lippe and specializes in the development and manufacture of sensor technology. The product range includes numerous incremental and absolute rotary encoders (encoders), various linear measuring systems, and all required accessories. The company also creates complex technical solutions as customized one-off production in small quantities. The products include, among others, the AWI 58, AWI 70 Ex, AWI 90, HWI 80 and MIG Nova series as well as the absolute encoders BC 58, PS and PCM. The rotary encoders are used worldwide in the packaging, food, heavy and wind power industries as well as in the oil and gas industry, including Ex-protected versions for explosion-hazard areas. From its own location in Werne in the Münsterland region, Hohner Elektrotechnik supplies customers all over the world with optimal logistics and short delivery times. The company continuously invests in research, technological development and innovation to ensure data and information analysis at a high level.
