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 ...

Noncontact magnetic rotary encoders are hard to beat when it comes to measuring rotary motion in machinery, as they are relatively small, strong, and inexpensive devices compared to traditional ...

The objective of this note is to provide a step-by-step manual assembly guide for the alignment and installation of the AEAT-601x magnetic encoder to a motor shaft. In this first release only a 6 mm ...

Multiturn absolute encoders resemble any absolute encoder where light shines through an etched disc that has a combination of ON and OFF signals. resemble any absolute encoder where light shines ...

The A02H from Kuebler features a tough and compact design, making it suitable for difficult industrial motor and drive applications. Features include a special shaft connection with interlocked ...

Continuing his tradition of making bits of wire and scraps of wood work wonders, [HomoFaciens] is back with a unique and clever design for an electromechanical encoder. There are lots of ways to build ...
