SICK introduces A3M Absolute Multiturn Encoder
SICK (www.sick.com) has unveiled a robust, absolute multiturn encoder that offers the new A3M encoder – a 14-bit sigleturn and 17-bit multiturn or a total of 31-bit output. Integrated with a Profibus output, the encoder features absolute encoders that are native to it, even without an internal power source. Featuring internal electronics that are resistant […]
Hiperface DSL encoder interface simplifies servomotor connection
Sick (www.sick.com), a German encoder manufacturer, has unveiled a new digital interface technology that simplifies servomotor connection — the Hiperface DSL (digital servo link) encoder interface. The new interface enables one cable to carry both encoder signal and power. Motors now require a single connector only, which significantly reduces costs and cabling time. For safe […]
Sick introduces new linear encoder for positioning robotics and machine tools
Sick (www.sick.co.uk) is proud to announce the release of its latest high-compact absolute linear encoder, the TTK70. It is designed as a motor feedback system for linear motors or for positioning machine tools and robotics. The high-performance magnetic encoder gives a very reliable alternative to fragile optical scales, with an accuracy of ± 10 microns […]
