With the new Grayhill 61L optical encoder series, the portfolio of MMI products from Grayhill is fully complete. Lifetime is the one main feature with over 1 million rotation cycles even in the ...

To attain accurate positioning, a servo system requires a feedback signal to close its feedback loop. Instruments that typically supply the feedback signal include optical encoders, resolvers, and ...

Optical encoders are critical components in systems with rotating shafts or parts. Optical rotary encoders are the most widely used way to transform mechanical rotary motion into electrical signals.

Adaptable to a wide range of designs, the C14 panel-mount optical encoder delivers a two-bit quadrature resolution via a clean, crisp square-wave output. The encoder employs no plastic components and ...

Goniometer Stages with 18 Arcsecond Repeatability, +/- 24 Degrees of Travel, and High Load Capacity! Van Nuys, CA — The AK170 ...

AEDR-871x is part of Avago Technologies’ new series of Reflective Optical Encoders designed for Low Power Miniaturized Motion Control Systems. The device is a 3-Channel High Resolution Reflective ...

Two new direct-drive linear motors in Moticont's SDLM line feature a linear optical quadrature encoder to enhance accuracy. The engineers at Moticont, Van Nuys, Calif., designed two new high-speed, ...

As you may have noticed, I’ve been working with an STM32 ARM CPU using Mbed. There was a time when Mbed was pretty simple, but a lot has changed since it has morphed into Mbed OS. Unfortunately, that ...

For engineers working on precision alignment, inspection and multi-axis motion control, the new AK170-24 Goniometer Stage ...

Optical communication systems have evolved significantly over recent years with the advent of advanced modulation techniques designed to enhance spectral efficiency and mitigate interference. Offset ...

If you have a motor and you’d like to know where the shaft position is, you are likely to turn to an optical encoder scheme. However, as [lingib] points out, you can also use a magnet and a ...
