Incremental encoders offer 16 quadrature resolutions from 96 to 4,096 PPR

June 7, 2022 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

encoders

CUI Devices’ Motion Group has introduced a new series to its AMT incremental encoder family. Based on the existing AMT11 series package, the new AMT11A series is not subject to silicon related lead-time constraints and can serve as a drop-in replacement for AMT11 encoder models. AMT11A encoders offer 16 quadrature resolutions from 96 to 4,096 […]

Incremental encoders configurable via NFC (near-field communication)

May 6, 2022 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

encoder

The new WDGN series of incremental encoders from Wachendorff Automation enables configuration of any pulse count from 1 I/U to 16,384 I/U via NFC (near-field communication). Depending on the equipment, basic or advanced, further parameters can be set via APP using NFC. After downloading the Wachendorff WDGN app to a smartphone, the desired parameters and […]

What is a gated index pulse for incremental encoders?

July 7, 2020 By Danielle Collins Leave a Comment

gated index pulse

Incremental encoders typically use two square-wave signals in quadrature (out of phase by 90 degrees) to track position and direction of motion. But because they only track incremental position (not absolute position) they’re not able to determine the true position of the motor and connected equipment after a shut-down or power loss. So most incremental […]

Capacitive incremental encoders support shaft sizes to 5/8 in.

September 12, 2019 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

encoders

CUI’s Motion Group has added a new series to its AMT incremental encoder family designed to support larger motor shaft sizes from 9 mm to 15.875 mm (5/8 in.). The AMT13 series, based on CUI’s proprietary capacitive ASIC technology, brings the same high levels of durability, accuracy, and immunity to environmental particulates as current AMT […]
