WAGO SPEEDWAY IP67 Incremental Encoder
WAGO Corporation adds an HTL Incremental Encoder/Counter Module to its SPEEDWAY IP67 I/O-SYSTEM. The machine-mountable 767-5202 evaluates incremental encoders and SSI absolute encoders at 24 V signal levels in harsh environments. It also provides a counting function for binary signals up to 250 kHZ. This makes it ideal for counting motor revolutions in applications such […]
Compact DBS36 and DBS50 Incremental Encoders Provide Reliable Feedback
SICK announced the launch of the DBS36 and DBS50 incremental encoders. The 36 mm housing of the DBS36 and the 50 mm housing of the DBS50 provide a compact housing design that is ideal for applications with limited installation space. Their small size and low profile make the DBS36 and DBS50 ideal for providing reliable […]
Nemicon’s expands with Ultra-Small 7S Series of 7mm Incremental Rotary Encoders
Nemicon continues to produce in high-performance miniaturization with its 7S Series Incremental Rotary Encoder. At just 7.2mm (0.28346”) in diameter, and based on Nemicon’s successful line of 18mm (0.70866”) and 12mm (0.47244”) diameter miniature encoders, the 7S Series shaft type encoder features high resolution, high noise immunity and high reliability. The body height of the […]
Encoders: Incremental Innovation
by Miles Budimir, Senior Editor Encoders for position feedback may be a well-established technology, but manufacturers continue to innovate by stretching the application space and adding new, useful features. Encoders are a well-established technology within the industrial world. Used wherever motion is found, they may not be as glamorous as either the end products or […]
Baumer’s HS35F incremental encoder now comes with EMS
Baumer (www.baumer.com) has integrated the HS35F incremental hollow shaft encoder with an enhanced monitoring system (EMS), which enables it to immediately detect device failure. The HS35F EMS encoder is specifically designed to endure extreme mechanical strain and deliver positioning/speed control. It also allows manufacturers to minimize expensive downtime as well as improve the reliability and […]
Baumer unveils HOG 86 redundant optical incremental encoders
Baumer (www.baumer.com) has announced the release of its HOG 86 series of redundant optical incremental encoders, which are ideal for applications requiring reliable motor/generator feedback as well as speed and position control. The new encoders feature dies cast housing that offers C4 protection from corrosion. With IP66 rating, the encoders can withstand challenging conditions in […]
What are Incremental Encoders? Technical Summary for Motion Engineers
Incremental encoders, like absolute encoders, are used to track motion as well as to determine speed and position. Incremental encoders generally supply square-wave signals in two channels, A and B, which are offset by 90 degrees, or out-of-phase by 90 degrees. This helps in determining the direction of rotation. The output signals of an incremental […]
Haydon’s incremental magnetic encoder an alternative to optical encoder
Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions Inc. (www.haydonkerk.com) has introduced a new magnetic encoder that utilizes both full signal processing and analog detection circuitry on single chip. It is available on the one-inch Series 25000 linear actuator. Fully enclosed and extremely compact, the incremental encoder includes both full signal processing and analog detection circuitry from a single […]
