Encoders and Inclination sensors  ENCODER AND INCLINATION SENSORS Paths, position, angle – an encoder is the ideal solution when it comes to precise position detection in industrial automation. The same applies to measuring revolutions and rpm as well as speed and acceleration. High-resolution optical encoders and extremely rugged magnetic encoders complement one another perfectly and permit exact measurements in all kinds of applications. Rotary encoders are available as incremental and absolute encoders. Wire draw encoders and linear encoders with a measuring element are available in linear...

  Encoders and Inclination sensors SAFETY ENCODER Incremental encoders for functional safety generate information about position, angle, and revolution counts. When combined with a safe evaluation unit, this enables users to meet the safety function requirements set out in IEC61800-5-2. Safety encoders can be used in a variety of applications in factory and logistics automation. Safety functions in stationary machines Stationary machines are often equipped with mechanical solutions, such as doors or flaps, to separate the user from hazardous points. When working on machines in maintenance or...

Encoder and Inclination sensors  LINEAR ENCODER The field of application for cranes encompasses nearly all areas of logistics from indoor to outdoor. This means that fine dust in cement factories or seawater from ship-to-shore cranes can quickly become a problem. Resistance to dirt, shock, vibration, and salt water is therefore a basic requirement for crane positioning systems. The KH53 linear encoder was designed specifically for such ambient conditions. It is used to position the trolley on the crane and to position the path of the crane itself. Due to its excellent repeatability, the largest...
