Rotary Encoders

Rotary encoders are used in many applications that require precise shaft unlimited rotation-including industrial controls, robotics, special purpose photographic lenses, computer input devices (such as optomechanical mice and trackballs), controlled stress rheometers, and rotating radar platforms.

MDT offers new AMR angle sensors with versatility and compatibility Read more...

Tattoo machines use miniature motors to make their point. As the art of tattoos has evolved, so have the machines designed to turn ink into living art. The process requires reciprocating needles that repeatedly penetrate the dermal skin at a high rate of frequency. There are two types of commercially marketed tattoo machines: coil and rotary.

Portescap's M Sense B encoder is designed specifically for applications that require high accuracy in a compact design Read more...

RVP510
Incremental encoder with solid shaft and display Read more...

The Model A37H miniature encoder is a single-turn rotary absolute encoder with opto-electric technology that offers up to 23-bit serial output. Read more...

There are two basic types of rotary encoders: absolute and incremental. Absolute rotary encoders provide a coded angle information and avoid time consuming reference measurements or calculation routines in the controller. Incremental rotary encoders provide a square wave or sinusoid output signal and enable counters and PLC to calculate position, speed and distance. Read more...

The Series R176H is a family of optical incremental encoders designed for industrial-grade applications that require thru-hollow shafts, high resolution and high accuracy. Read more...

RSB 3600 Series sensors are EGMR (enhanced giant magnetic resistance) devices that retain their angular position even when power is removed. The sensors retain that angle information for years without power. So there is no need for batteries. Operating speed is up to 12,000 RPM. Read more...

The Series 9480H is a robust metrology-grade encoder that is equally well-suited for industrial applications. It incorporates four reading heads to eliminate many common sources of encoder errors, while its stainless steel construction greatly enhances resistance to shock and vibration. Read more...
