Encoders and decoders are common elements in alarm, remote-control, and measurement systems. However, most of these devices require many I/O lines when under microprocessor or PC control. For example, ...

All engineers know how to use their digital oscilloscope to automatically measure basic parameters such as peak-to-peak voltage, rise time, or frequency on waveforms with a few button presses. Some ...

In robotics, movements must be precise and well-controlled. As robots are asked to do more as industry becomes more familiar with the technology, there will be an increasing need for high accuracy ...

Encoders are widely used to help control machine position and speed. Typical encoder output, a series of quadrature signals, consists of two full square waves, offset by 90° in phase. The number of ...

With the Speetec, Sick is expanding its product range for speed and length measurement of objects moving in a linear path to include technology that measures directly on the material surface. The ...

Rotary and linear optical encoders are common in position and motion sensing. Here, a disc or plate containing opaque and transparent segments passes between an LED and detector to interrupt a light ...

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 ...

ANAHEIM, USA: Motion Marketplace is an authorized stocking distributor of autonics encoders. Our rotary encoders are used to electronically monitor the position of a rotating shaft by converting shaft ...
