Need to build an angular encoder system? We have all the parts you need. Incremental encoders measure a scale, so it can tell the controller exactly where the tool is. We offer many types of encoders, as well as scales with different pitches to fit your requirements. Reinshaw angular encoders are a popular option, thanks to their open optical system. By removing the need for an external enclosure, these encoders don’t have problems with backlash, torsion and other mechanical issues.
We also carry their linear and rotary encoders, as well as readheads and interface boards. These interfaces offer options like dual SiGNUM (Dsi,) which uses two readheads to compensate for harmonics errors, and propoZ, which lets you select a reference mark. When ordering, remember that all components need to use the same clock frequency for compatibility.
