AutomationDirect has expanded its Koyo encoder product line to include additional incremental encoder output options and higher resolutions for absolute encoders.

Absolute encoders are favored over incremental encoders because they can provide an absolute position measurement regardless of the power state or shaft motion.

Global precision motion control and nanopositioning industry leader PI introduces a new high dynamics linear motor stage family, the V-574 - a new series of linear positioning stages with ...

Choice of Three Optical Encoders for Incremental and Absolute Measuring Three encoder choices are available, two sine/cosine encoders for traditional motion controllers and an absolute encoder with ...

The dual encoders are incorporated in essentially the same package size as the long-standing FHA-C mini single incremental encoder version. Without increasing the size, the dual absolute encoder ...

Absolute encoders are available in single and multiturn versions. Multiturn devices are primarily used with measuring screws. Incremental encoders are preferred when low cost is important, or when ...

Avago Technologies announced a high-resolution absolute optical encoder for high-performance servo and motor feedback applications.

Incremental encoders let machines accurately monitor acceleration and rapidly respond to changing loads. In contrast, machine axes that position mechanical components usually use absolute encoders.

A DSP design approach, including hardware and software implementation for a quasi-absolute encoder. LEE WEI YAN, Applications Engineer, Avago Technologies, San Jose, Calif. A high-accuracy 20-bit ...

V-551 Precision Linear Motor Stage with Absolute Encoder and 0.5nm Minimum Incremental Option from PI ...
