SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - January 18, 2017) - HEIDENHAIN introduces a new series of functionally safe hollow-shaft connection encoders to the manufacturing equipment industry. Called the ...

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 ...

An interesting trend in industrial motion control has been the replacement of self-contained encoders (rotation sensors with their own housing, bearings and shaft) with modular or “kit” encoders.

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 ...

Baumer has released the EB360 bearingless multi-turn magnetic encoder with a compact design for precise feedback in challenging environments. With wear-free operation and a modular, space-saving ...

For any designs that deal with large motors, isolation is a desired characteristic for both control and sense loops. Turn on, turn off, changes in load, changes in power, and unexpected events can ...
