Noncontact magnetic rotary encoders are hard to beat when it comes to measuring rotary motion in machinery, as they are relatively small, strong, and inexpensive devices compared to traditional ...

Optical rotary encoders are the most widely used way to transform mechanical rotary motion into electrical signals. There are three basic configurations for optical encoders: incremental, absolute, ...

If you have a motor and you’d like to know where the shaft position is, you are likely to turn to an optical encoder scheme. However, as [lingib] points out, you can also use a magnet and a ...

Position encoders are sensors that, when used in industrial settings, produce critical motor information such as speed and position. The encoder delivers data for display or data that may serve as ...

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

Since its establishment in 1998, Netzer Precision Position Sensors has been at the forefront of designing, manufacturing, and supplying high-quality absolute position encoders. Leveraging their ...

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 ...

For any designs that deal with large motors, isolation is a desired characteristic for both control and sense loops. Turn on, turn off, changes in load, changes in power, and unexpected events can ...

Today’s medical equipment is often tasked with performing incredibly complex, highly sensitive procedures that require the utmost levels of precision and attention to detail. Technologies like motion ...
