The need for accuracy and precision in industrial systems continues to grow as more advanced processes are implemented in manufacturing, among other sectors. The devices used in position sensing on ...

Before the digital age, when transistors were expensive, unreliable, and/or nonexistent, engineers had to use other tricks to do things that we take for granted nowadays. Motor positioning, for ...

The benefits of a dual inductive rotary sensor. How inductive position sensors are designed to improve motor precision, motor control, and motor performance in industrial applications and requirements ...

Magnetic-Free Dual-Coil Technology Provides High Resolution, Precision and Reliability for Motor Position Sensors Used in Robotics, Industrial and Medical Devices TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Renesas ...

Rotary encoders sense changes in the position of a rotating shaft, then generate signals that send speed, direction, and position information to a receiving device such as a counter, drive, or ...

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 ...

Compact Magnetic Encoder IC Supports Both On-Axis and Off-Axis Position Sensing for Humanoid Robots, Quadruped Robots, Servo ...

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.
