Get the most out of brushless dc motors by specifying optical encoders. They measure finer movements than hall sensors, because their operation doesn't rely on motor phases. Brushless dc (BLDC) motors ...

Rotary encoders are indispensable tools for providing position feedback in many motion-control and automation processes. Lifts, overhead monorails, automated storage and retrieval systems, and cranes ...

Aura P is a high-resolution absolute encoder in a super-compact form-factor. Credit INMOCO The Aura P is presented in a connection-ready PCBA (printed circuit board assembly), enabling fast and easy ...

Using fiber-optic technology within the cable assembly, the MR121 ZapFree encoder cable replaces standard controller-to-sensor connections and reduces ground-loop and interference problems in motion ...

In any application using motors for automation, there is a need to ensure accurate control of the motor. To make this possible, the position and speed of the rotor in the motor, which is usually ...

Optical sensors are successfully used for measurement in many areas, such as the position sensing of moving objects or the measurement of distance. The types of sensor elements used in these ...

TT Electronics has launched FlexSense a technology designed to optimize optical encoder applications. The FlexSense series consists of the FS210 Transmissive Incremental Encoder and the FS310 ...

Melexis has introduced a new inductive position-sensing chip aimed at robotics, industrial automation, and emerging mobility ...

Everyone has at least one extra mouse laying around; why not get some use out of it? Disassembling the mouse you can get two optical encoders plus four infrared emitter/detector pairs. Then you can ...

iC-Haus will demonstrate its latest 26bit resolution optical encoder IC at SPS next month in Nuremberg. iC-RT2624, as it will be known, is aimed at both housed and kit encoders, and will achieve its ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...
