To control motion on a machine or electromechanical system you need continuous positional feedback from the moving parts. That’s where encoders enter the picture. But how do you determine which one is ...

How position encoders should communicate with controllers often depends on compatibility issues rather than raw speed. An absolute encoder includes a coding disk in binary or gray code format, the ...

Every encoder-based motion-control axis, such as a servo motor or step motor, must know where it is to be accurate. If it doesn’t, it will never reach its target position. But the encoder must first ...
