Rotary Encoders

HEIDENHAIN Corp. now introduces new low profile incremental rotary encoders with block commutation tracks, especially suitable for use in small-dimensioned servo motors.

HEIDENHAIN Corp. has released a new absolute, inductive rotary encoder.

To keep up with the growing demands of the industry, HEIDENHAIN has increased the functionality of its PROFIBUS rotary encoders.

Heidenhain Corp. offers NUMERIK JENA encoders that are non-magnetic.

Meeting the motor industry's needs for a thin and robust rotary encoder for tight spaces is Leine & Linde's introduction of the 700 Series of encoders from Heidenhain.

In robotics and automation technology, rotary encoders and resolvers serve on servo drives as feedback systems for position and speed control. An increasing number of applications require multiturn versions of absolute encoders that are low in cost and as sturdy as resolvers, but with features beyond what resolvers can provide. HEIDENHAIN's new EBI 1135 absolute inductive rotary encoder fits this bill.

HEIDENHAIN's newest generation of absolute angle encoders continue to set standards with their integral bearings and hollow shafts, and have now expanded their usage to include connection to Fanuc controls.

HEIDENHAIN has expanded its absolute rotary encoder offering with the new RIQ/IQN 425 series.

Heidenhain offers a new magnetic ring encoder strategically segmented to simply fit around large shafts is now available from Leine & Linde.

The RSF MS 45 from Heidenhain brings to market an exposed linear encoder that features an integrated status display with a multicolor LED to facilitate simple mounting as well as to allow for monitoring signal quality during operation.
