The FOT variants of the KCI 1300 inductive encoders from Heidenhain can also serve as a bearing cover. A growing trend in encoder technology is the integration of additional sensors to add diagnostic ...

Melexis has introduced a new inductive position-sensing chip aimed at robotics, industrial automation, and emerging mobility ...

This is an incremental rotary encoder that uses contactless magnetic sensing to detect rotational speed and direction. The two Hall Effect sensors measure the 66-pole ring magnet and output two ...

12-bit universal magnetic position encoder IC includes linear Hall sensor array adapted to the targets’ magnetic pole pitch of 2 mm The iC-MHL200 from iC-Haus is a 12-bit IC for linear and angular ...

A new miniature incremental encoder brings metrology-grade precision to space-restricted motion systems, offering high ...

Most of the hacks we see around these parts have to do with taking existing components and cobbling them together in interesting new ways. It’s less often that we see existing components gutted and ...

Rotary encoders convert rotary movement or angular position into analogue or digital signals for use in measurement or control systems. They can be classified in a number of ways, primarily by the ...

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...
