Designed without gears to eliminate wear and sensitivity to magnetic fields, the Kübler by TURCK F36 optical encoder series features a compact size of only 36 mm ...

At NAB, Link Research announced low bit-rate upgrades to its L1000 decoder, extending the standard minimum bit rate of 2.5 Mb/s down to 500 kb/s. Until now the L1000 was only suited to high bit-rate ...

Milwaukee-GE Marquette Medical Systems manufactures monitoring and diagnostic systems. The DASH 2000/3000 is a compact portable monitor used in ambulances by emergency medical technicians to track ...

San Jose, Calif. — Avago Technologies has expanded its family of miniature reflective incremental optical encoders with a new high resolution encoder. Touted as the industry's smallest, the ...

Encoders are widely used in the motion control and automation industry to monitor the position and speed of motors. This information can be used by the motion control electronics to detect if the ...

SICK has expanded its MAX® family of linear encoders to extend the space-saving, operating cost and maintenance benefits offered by its innovative magnetostrictive measurement technology to smaller ...

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 ...

Rotary encoders provide critical information about a motor shaft’s position, rotational direction, velocity (rpm), and acceleration. They are vital components in motion-control feedback loops used in ...
