What is an инкрементный энкодер?
An инкрементный энкодер is a type of industrial encoder that converts mechanical motion—such as rotation or linear displacement—into digital pulses. Each pulse represents a small movement increment, allowing automation systems to track motion changes rather than absolute position.
What does an incremental encoder do?
The main function of an incremental encoder is to measure position, speed, and direction in real time. By sending pulses to a controller or motion system, it enables precise motion control, synchronization, and accurate monitoring of moving parts in machinery.
Where are incremental encoders commonly used?
Incremental encoders are widely used in industrial automation, CNC machines, robotics, conveyor systems, and packaging equipment. They are ideal for applications where relative motion tracking is sufficient and high-resolution feedback is required.
Why choose an incremental encoder?
Incremental encoders offer high-speed response, cost-effectiveness, and simple integration with control systems. They are particularly suitable for applications that require fast, accurate, and reliable feedback without the complexity of absolute position measurement.
