This application note demonstrates how to read data from the two-channel output of an incremental rotary encoder. Data from these two channels are based on the Gray Encoding System and can be used to ...

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 ...

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 ...

Precisely tracking speed, acceleration, and position of a motor's rotor is an essential requirement for many motor control applications found in everyday equipment such as fax machines, elevators, and ...

BEI Sensors is introducing its new functional safety incremental encoder range that is certified by TÜV Rheinland and can be used in the highest industrial safety related applications up to SIL3/PLe ...

POSITAL has launched a major upgrade to its IXARC family of incremental rotary encoders. These encoders feature new magnetic sensor technology and more energy-efficient embedded microcontrollers .

Deemed as some of the most cost-effective miniature incremental encoders around, the OPE1275 and OPE2275 single- and dual-channel encoders are designed specifically for use in printer motors, machine ...

SICK announced the launch of its DDS36 and DDS50 incremental encoders. They are low-cost, light duty optical incremental encoders that offer an exceptional price/performance ratio. SICK announced the ...
