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 ...

Fabless chip maker CambridgeIC has improved the accuracy and speed of its non-contact position sensing technology. Implemented in the firm’s CAM502 chip, it uses resonant inductive sensors to deliver ...

The Model HS52 is said to be the first UL and ATEX rated explosion-proof hollow shaft encoder. It can operating directly in Division 1 and Zone 1 environments — where ignitable concentrations of ...

Two sets of internal electronics send identical isolated output signals to two separate connectors. If one output becomes electrically damaged, the cable can be switched to the other connector. The ...

Southington, Conn. -- August 11, 2011... For speed and position monitoring on large diameter shafts, Baumer introduces their HDMag line of high-precision, bearing-less and contact-free magnetic tape ...

With an outside diameter of 2.5”, the HS25 industrial-grade hollow-shaft encoder is designed to accommodate standard motor shafts of 5/8” diameter. The unit is rugged and sealed for use in industrial ...

Encoders are the most widely used feedback devices for electric motor control, capable of delivering precise position and speed feedback for closed-loop performance. With numerous technology options ...
