When You Need Absolute Encoders！

The absolute rotary encoder itself understands the positioning information – it doesn’t need to rely on outside electronics to provide a baseline index for the encoder position. Absolute encoders enable applications which rely on non-linear positioning to work without additional external components.
In real life, absolute encoders allow more precision work from applications:

Determining multi-axis orientation for CNC machines used in parts manufacturing
Automatically determining the height of scissor beds used in hospitals
Accurately positioning multiple stabilizers for large vehicles like cranes or aerial lifts
Moving automatic doors or bays without a limiting switch
Continuing robotic movement cleanly even after a power failure
Especially when compared to resolvers and incremental encoders, the obvious strength of absolute encoders is how their positioning accuracy affects the overall application performance.
