High Precision Potentiometers

For some targeted applications, only the extreme accuracy of a High Precision Potentiometer will do.

If your application requires a certain performance threshold or demands absolute accuracy within a certain rotation angle or path, High Precision Potentiometers, including Precision Angle Sensors, Multi-Turn Potentiometers, and Linear Motion Transducers, can meet your needs.

Potentiometers measure linear and rotary position – a crucial function in a wide array of modern products and applications – and High Precision Potentiometers from Hoffmann + Krippner partner Altmann GmbH can perform this function with unparalleled exactness.

Altmann offers nearly 50 years of experience in the development and production of technically advanced and high-quality products, serving customers worldwide whose need for accuracy and precision is equally unmatched, such as the nuclear industry within the U.S.

Of course, “precision” can have different meanings depending on the situation. For example, quality criteria can include resolution, repeatability, hysteresis, and reproducibility. Experts from Altmann and Hoffmann + Krippner can work with customers to understand what they really need for their specific application and to identify the perfect High Precision Potentiometer product line and model for their application.

Why use a High Precision Potentiometer from Altmann and Hoffmann + Krippner?

High precision potentiometers made to your requirements

Altmann offers an extensive product portfolio of High Precision Potentiometers that can meet a variety of needs, budgets, and applications (more information below).

However, in some cases, an existing in-stock solution may not exist, and the engineer may need to work with the sensor provider to develop a custom solution that meets the needs of that specific project. Altmann specializes in designing and building custom-made sensors.

Altmann’s and H + K’s engineering teams are skilled and experienced at working with a customer’s development group to quickly and efficiently developing custom solutions. We can also provide expertise and assistance with the integration of the sensors into the final product design.

All our standard products can be amended individually, and everything is possible from series production to single-part manufacturing. We produce your potentiometers according to your exact requirements and specifications.

Meeting high performance and safety standards

Altmann products comply with the European guidelines for product safety. Like Hoffmann + Krippner, they have set high standards for our in-house quality testing and only the perfect quality product will leave our warehouse.

We also work closely with external laboratories for third-party testing and qualifying purposes. Altmann GmbH is certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001 : 2008. The entire product range is also certified for CE and RoHs specifications.
