Design engineers and machine builders working in hazardous environments now have a trusted solution for precision motion ...

These devices are ideal for oil and gas installations, chemical plants, woodworking operations, grain handling facilities and ...

Whether rotary or linear, incremental or absolute, optical encoders are built to last without losing precision. The Challenge of Integration As machines get smaller, smarter, and more interconnected, ...

Same Sky has created an absolute encoder family for motor shafts from 9 to 15.875mm (5/8inch). Called AMT25 and said to be accurate to ±0.2°, the family relies on the same in-house capacitive ASIC for ...

Kollmorgen servo motors are now available with its fourth generation SFD-M smart feedback device. Supplied at no additional cost over its earlier SFD models, this encoder delivers four times greater ...

Choice of three optical encoders for incremental and absolute measuring Three encoder choices are available, two sine/cosine encoders for traditional motion controllers and an absolute encoder with ...

Both incremental and absolute rotary encoders are electromechanical devices that provide motion feedback about a rotating shaft. However, absolute rotary encoders can do the job of incremental ...

The measuring system combines the encoder with the MTA-A154 tape, that encodes two tracks: the true absolute pattern for position information and a 2 mm (0.078”) pole pitch incremental track for speed ...

While incremental encoders based on the new technology platform have been available for several months, the company is now rolling out a new generation of single and multiturn absolute encoders.
