Read part 1 of this series on rotary sensors in electric vehicles which covers the use of resolvers and encoders. In an electric vehicle, unless the manufacturer has a means to control vibrations ...

A contactless rotary position sensor from ams is designed as a replacement for conventional rotary encoders. “In devices which use rotary knobs, the AS5601 and its paired magnet may replace a rotary ...

POSITAL has introduced a series of measuring wheel accessories for its IXARC family of rotary encoders. When one of these wheels is mounted on the shaft of an encoder, the result is an accurate and ...

Since its establishment in 1998, Netzer Precision Position Sensors has been at the forefront of designing, manufacturing, and supplying high-quality absolute position encoders. Leveraging their ...

Rotary encoders are indispensable tools for providing position feedback in many motion-control and automation processes. Lifts, overhead monorails, automated storage and retrieval systems, and cranes ...

Gray code is a systematic ordering of binary numbers in a way that each successive value differs from the previous one in ...

In the field of automation, a motion control system consists of mechanical hardware coupled to a prime mover, the operation of which is governed by a computerized controller that compares the command ...

Same Sky has created an absolute encoder family for motor shafts from 9 to 15.875mm (5/8inch). Called AMT25 and said to be accurate to ±0.2°, the family relies on the same in-house capacitive ASIC for ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...
