Industrial automation equipment helps control, measure, position, secure and optimize the operation of machines and processes. It helps improve productivity, reduce downtime, increase precision and protect both operators and equipment.
Since 1963, Moteurs Gosselin has helped businesses choose, repair, replace or refurbish automation components according to their machine, process, operating environment and operational constraints.
A linear axis moves a load, part, tool or mechanical module in a straight line. It helps automate repetitive movements, control precise positioning and improve the accuracy of an industrial machine.
Linear axes are used in positioning systems, assembly lines, packaging machines, material handling equipment, Cartesian robots, automated machines and processes requiring stable linear motion.

Industrial controllers manage machines, sequences, operating parameters and automated processes. They handle signals, commands, measurements and interactions between motors, sensors, drives, interfaces and production equipment.
These components include industrial programmable logic controllers, also called PLCs, as well as operator interfaces, often called HMIs. They play an essential role in the automation of machines and production lines.

Encoders measure the position, speed or displacement of a shaft, motor or mechanism. They send feedback information to the control system to improve motion accuracy, synchronization and stability.
They are found in motors, servo motors, conveyors, linear axes, CNC machines, positioning systems, automated equipment and production lines that require reliable motion control.
Here are different types of encoders available on the market:
Dynapar, NorthStar, Heidenhain, Hohner, Baumer, Encoder.
Industrial safety products protect operators, machines and work areas. They help detect presence, restrict access to hazardous zones, stop equipment, signal a status or secure an automated process.
They are integrated into industrial machines, production lines, robotic cells, conveyors, material handling equipment and automated systems requiring reliable safety.

Industrial sensors are designed to detect presence, position, speed, pressure, temperature or a change in a process. They then transmit information to the controller to trigger an action, adjust a command or protect equipment. They also help improve the precision, safety and reliability of automated systems.

Operator interfaces make it easier to control, diagnose and supervise automated machines. They give technicians and operators direct access to parameters, setpoints, alarms and equipment operating status.
Control systems coordinate machine actions based on received signals, such as sensors, buttons, encoders, programmable logic controllers and input/output modules. They trigger the right sequences, adjust movements and ensure the logical operation of the process.
Together, operator interfaces and control systems improve communication between the operator, the machine and the control components. They simplify adjustments, speed up diagnosis and support more stable production.

Since 1963, Moteurs Gosselin has assessed customer needs, validated component technical specifications and recommended solutions adapted to each machine, process and operating constraint. Our personalized approach helps you make an informed decision.
Our team helps you avoid poor selections, compatibility errors, unexpected downtime, communication problems, loss of precision and failures related to control components.
Moteurs Gosselin is an EASA member and works according to recognized standards such as CSA, NEMA, IEC and IEEE.
When an automation component shows signs of failure, the Moteurs Gosselin team helps determine whether it should be repaired, replaced or substituted with an equivalent solution.
An automation component can begin to fail and show signs of age before the machine stops completely. A quick inspection is essential to limit damage, loss of precision and production downtime.
If you notice any of these signs, the Moteurs Gosselin team can inspect your equipment, perform a diagnosis and recommend the best solution.
Moteurs Gosselin offers pickup and shipping services to simplify the purchase, replacement, repair or refurbishment of your automation equipment.
Based in the Eastern Townships, our team supports businesses across Canada and the Northeastern USA, including Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New York and surrounding regions, with a solution adapted to your deadlines and operational needs.
A PLC, or programmable logic controller, controls the logic and sequences of a machine. An HMI, or human-machine interface, allows the user to view, adjust and monitor machine parameters.
An encoder measures the position, speed or displacement of a motor, axis or mechanism. It transmits this information to the control system to improve motion accuracy and stability.
Replacement may be preferable if the component is obsolete, difficult to repair, incompatible with the current system or too damaged to provide optimal operation.
Yes, in some cases. However, input and output signals, control logic, communication, power supply, parameters, wiring and machine compatibility must be validated.
Instability may come from a defective sensor, worn encoder, communication issue, poor parameter settings, unstable power supply, faulty controller or mechanical problem.
Ideally, prepare a photo of the nameplate, the component model, error messages, observed symptoms, machine type, application, signals used and level of urgency.
Yes. Moteurs Gosselin can help with different safety products such as safety light curtains, safety relays, door switches, limit switches, area scanners and light or audible indicators.
A system should be inspected when a machine loses precision, triggers alarms, stops intermittently, loses position, responds slowly or shows irregular signals.
Looking for a linear axis, controller, PLC, HMI, encoder, safety product or automation component? Contact Moteurs Gosselin and our team will help you choose the most reliable solution based on your machine, application and level of urgency.
