Precise motion control often requires more than tracking position within a single rotation. Multi-turn encoders provide ...

Absolute Accuracy The difference between the actual position and the reported position through one rotation (like INL) Position control applications depend on absolute accuracy Differential Accuracy ...

C&K has launched an optical rotary encoder, the ENC Series 24-Position Optical Encoder with integrated pushbutton. The ENC Series encoder was developed as an improvement on the company's 16 Position ...

Every encoder-based motion-control axis, such as a servo motor or step motor, must know where it is to be accurate. If it doesn’t, it will never reach its target position. But the encoder must first ...

The AEAS-7 series absolute optical encoders supply position information without requiring shaft movement. The units generate a unique binary word for each shaft ...

Natick, Mass. — MicroE Systems claims its new Mercury 3500Si is the first high performance position feedback encoder to operate at maximum speed and maximum resolution. Using an industry-standard SPI ...

That level of resolution is ideal for commutation, high-speed motor control, position/velocity control, and replacement of potentiometers and optical encoders. It’s a low-power 3.3-V (or 5-V) device, ...

Measuring wheels are available in different sizes, with circumferences of 200 mm, 500 mm, or 12 inches POSITAL’s measuring wheel accessories for its IXARC family of rotary encoders enables these ...

An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...
