POSITAL’s IXARC magnetic absolute encoders with CANopen interfaces are now available with an optional “connection cap” that makes device configuration and troubleshooting simpler and more intuitive.

A multi-turn absolute encoder feature is now available integrated with all-in-one motor and electronics Lexium MDrive ® products. Without increasing product size, NEMA size 17 (42mm) & 23 (57mm) ...

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 ...

Introducing Avago’s 14-bit high temp multiturn absolute Encoder Module, the AEAT-84AD. The device is able to provide optoelectronicmechanical unit functions that allows implementation of an absolute ...

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 ...

Sensor specialist BAUMER continues to expand its range of ultra-compact, maintenance-free encoders for harsh industrial applications following the introduction of the EB360 a new multi-turn encoder.

Eliminating buttons or switches, the HMT25 multi-turn absolute encoder integrates an electronic reset capability that initializes the component via software. By sending a timed pulse through the reset ...

Claimed to be the highest resolution encoder available, the Dignalizer provides a 32-bit resolution in a multi-turn configuration. The encoder can measure up to 262,144 pulses per revolution over the ...

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 ...

My previous blog Encoders Know All the Angles introduced encoders that provide information about rotary positions. A diagram illustrated the phase relationship of signals from an incremental encoder.
