The AEDR-850x encoder is the smallest 3 channel optical encoder in the world with digital outputs employing reflective technology for motion control purposes. The encoder is designed to operate over ...

Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

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 ...

In aviation the term fly-by-wire means that the control surfaces of an aircraft are operated by actuators rather than via cables and rods, with electrical signals transmitting information from 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 ...

The Series 62AG optical encoder consists of 100% hard-tooled parts and uses light-pipe technology for optical switching. The device generates a 2-bit digital output that measures the magnitude and ...
