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 ...

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 ...

The redesigned HS35 vector-duty hollow-shaft encoder from Dynapar Corp., Gurnee, Ill. (www.dynapar.com) has several new features but the same old price. For example, the encoder now carries a 400-g ...

The HS35 incremental hollow-shaft encoder from Baumer Ltd., Southington, Conn., combines heavy-duty design with a precise optical scanner to provide reliable, closed-loop control with accuracies of 60 ...

These capacitive hollow shaft kit encoders are not limited to a single-turn measurement range: they feature an integrated rotation counter that records each revolution the instrument experiences, even ...

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 ...

SICK has unveiled its next-generation family of large-bore hollow-shaft incremental encoders, the SICK DGS80. An innovative design concept has opened up versatile integration possibilities for the ...

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 ...

For those needing contamination-resistant encoders with functional safety (FS) for machine feedback, HEIDENHAIN introduces the ECM 2400 absolute modular magnetic angle encoder. Schaumburg, IL, April ...
