Telemecanique Encoders
Incremental encoders:
- Calculation of position and/or speed by counting pulses per revolution,
- Parameterable version (resolution 256 to 80 000 points).
Absolute single turn encoders:
- Reading position within a revolution
Absolute multiturn encoders:
- Reading position within a revolution and indication of the number of revolutions
Communicating absolute multiturn encoders:
- Reading position and speed with CANopen or PROFIBUS-DP communication interface
Main characteristics:
- Reliability provided by in-line (3 heads) differential optical reading, high tolerance to: the accumulation of dirt, temperature, and aging.
Incremental and absolute encoders:
- 3 housing diameters: 40, 58, and 90 mm
- 2 shaft types: modular solid or through shafts using reduction collars
- All resolutions: from 100 to 80 000 points
Communicating absolute multiturn encoders:
- Housing diameter: 58 mm
- 2 shaft types: modular solid or hollow shafts using reduction collars
- Resolution: 8192 points /4096 turns
- Integration in the SyCon software environment.
Benefits
A range of innovative rotary encoders opened to field BUS and greatly simplify resolution parameter-setting.
