Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

Machine and robot builders recognize linear motor benefits, but some are reluctant to integrate the components into design because of incomplete understanding of the technology. Here we overcome that ...

Haydon Switch & Instrument’s size 8 hybrid linear actuators are available with encoder feedback. Their simplicity and low cost suit the encoders well for both high- and low-volume motion-control ...

The AS5305 magnetic linear motion encoder IC makes linear-position measurements by sliding a single- or double-track multi-pole magnetic strip over the IC. Using a cost-effective single-track magnetic ...

There are a number of linear motion technologies availableto machine and device designers, each with advantages and disadvantages.Medical device design in particular, in which applications typically ...

Linear motion positioning stages are found in many applications from material handling and assembly to inspection and testing and employ many different technologies. Just looking at the different ...

From robotics and medical devices to green energy and automation, RLS magnetic encoders deliver precise motion control across countless industries. Our rotary encoders achieve accuracies down to ±44 ...

The encoder module incorporates a lensed LED light source and monolithic photodetector array with signal-shaping electronics to produce the two-channel bounceless TTL outputs. The internal monolithic ...

Optical encoders and transducers enable users to translate information from one code to another. Optical encoders come in different varieties including rotary encoders and linear encoders. The optical ...

RSF Elektronik has provided an absolute upgrade path for customers using the MS 15 linear encoder or for those who would like to design in absolute linear measurement technology in price-sensitive ...
