Why are there so many different angle encoders on the market? Why do they use different scanning and measuring methods? And which one should a designer choose? To answer those questions, engineers at ...

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.

With a new size of the SXR motors, the powerful motor of the new GXR family, the high-precision encoder and the matching gearhead, FAULHABER presents products that are perfectly matched to one another ...

Celera Motion, the manufacturer of optical encoders, motors, and actuators, in recent weeks, announced a new series of low-profile linear motors called Javelin, and introduced its MicroE Veratus ...

Stepper motor linear actuators (SMLAs) combine a stepper motor, precision lead screw and nut in one compact envelope, providing a highly configurable, customizable and robust system for linear motion.

The A2K Absolute Optical Encoder from US Digital can be assembled onto existing shaft and bearing assemblies. The encoder reports the shaft angle within a single 360° rotation of a shaft. Last year, ...

Several factors, from sensors to safety and robotic arms or mobile platforms, help determine the selection of a brushless DC ...

FAULHABER introduces a range of components designed to work seamlessly together, including the newly sized SXR motors, the GXR motor family, a high-precision encoder, and a matching gearhead. All ...
