The ANS/ANM58 Profinet from Sick Sensor Intelligence delivers rapid, bi-directional communication with PLCs. The design includes an improved optical measurement system for high precision movement ...

The new LIKA EHCT59 absolute encoder is marked by its through hollow shaft and the integration of the EHG (Energy Harvesting Generator) technology platform. It offers a high single-turn resolution of ...

Manufacturers need encoders, but they don’t really want to think about them. Encoders are arguably one of the most necessary sensors in manufacturing, but many aren’t sure what to consider when ...

Abstract: In order to avoid the fabrication of coding pattern over a shaft coupled disk of the binary coded absolute encoder, a new design concept has been presented in this paper. The proposed ...

If you go to the Wikipedia page on absolute encoders, you’ll find descriptions of these devices mentioning multiple code rings, glass or plastic discs, and configurations of sliding contacts arranged ...
