Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...

A new magnetic digital encoder featuring 14-bit resolution, differential outputs, and a speed range of up to 200-k e-RPM offers accurate and cost-effective position sensing for various robotic and ...

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 ...

Rotary encoders convert rotary movement or angular position into analogue or digital signals for use in measurement or control systems. They can be classified in a number of ways, primarily by the ...

Knobs are ubiquitous in technology user interfaces, but touchscreens are increasingly replacing them for interface controls. The latest project from [upir] combines a rotating knob with a touchscreen ...

Baumer has released the EB360 bearingless multi-turn magnetic encoder with a compact design for precise feedback in challenging environments. With wear-free operation and a modular, space-saving ...

These IXARC magnetic encoders withstand harsh environments and are modular for maximum versatility. Rotary encoders measure the rotation of machine shafts and report the results to electronic controls ...

POSITAL’s new family of kit encoders provide the manufacturers of servomotors and other machinery with rugged, accurate and cost-efficient tools for building rotary position measurements into their ...

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...
