Naval

In the unforgiving maritime environment, where salt, moisture, and constant motion challenge even the toughest systems, precision and reliability are paramount. Netzer’s VL and DS product lines deliver unmatched accuracy and durability, ensuring optimal performance in mission-critical naval applications.

From shipborne radar and missile guidance systems to autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and naval gun stabilization, Netzer’s contactless, low-profile encoders provide absolute precision in the harshest conditions. Built to withstand extreme humidity, corrosion, and continuous shock and vibration, the VL and DS series ensure unwavering reliability where failure is not an option.

Mastering motion control at sea takes experience, and Netzer has decades of it. With compact designs starting from 13 mm, our encoders offer best-in-class precision without compromise, enhancing navigation, targeting, and defense systems to keep naval forces mission-ready in the toughest waters.
