Rotary encoders connect to a shaft and, as the shaft rotates, the encoder outputs pulses. These are used to determine the speed of the object. By counting the amount of pulses per one full turn of the ...

Every encoder-based motion-control axis, such as a servo motor or step motor, must know where it is to be accurate. If it doesn’t, it will never reach its target position. But the encoder must first ...

The CoreTech CA6 Series Single-Turn Absolute Encoder is available in any resolution from 2 to 32,768 ppr. Alignment of encoder zero position to the mechanical zero position is quick and easy with an ...
