They have Hall sensors but no encoder, although a rear shaft is all set up to take US Digital or CUI encoders.
Kirk had a line on some Wantai motors from IMTTUSA that were really sold for pump duty and such, and it is harder to apply an encoder to these. But, you could now take the Hall sensor arrangement off the rear shaft and use the new CUI 6-channel encoder to get both Hall and quadrature signals.
