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 ...

The leading and longest established online Process Engineering publication serving the Process Manufacturing Industries ...

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 ...

Engineers use rotary encoders to measure the angular position of an attached device, such as a motor shaft, or to measure distance indirectly when used with a linear belt drive, for example. Rotary ...

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 ...

An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...
