Encoders are one of the most important devices in modern automation and motion control systems. They act as "sensors of position," ensuring machines move precisely the way they are programmed. Without ...

Absolute encoders using optical technology often face limitations in resolution and size. For example, to achieve a higher resolution of up to 16-bits, the absolute encoder has to be combined with an ...

Encoders are widely used in the motion control and automation industry to monitor the position and speed of motors. This information can be used by the motion control electronics to detect if the ...

This image shows several encoder disks: lower resolutions are on the left and higher resolutions are on the right. Encoders are a key component of motion control systems in that they send a feedback ...
