Rotary Encoder type selection！

Encoder type selection



First select the rotary encoder type:

1. Determine the detection object, speed, distance, measuring the angular displacement or the like count.
2. Only for dynamic processes still contain static position or state.
3. Determine the range of motion of the object.
4. Determine the maximum speed or frequency of the object.
5. Determine the accuracy of the object.
6. Use of the environment.

1,2, choose incremental rotary encoder or an absolute type rotary encoder according to.
According to 3, select a single turn absolute rotary encoder or multi-turn absolute rotary encoder.
Rotary Encoder parameters 4,5 Select.
According 6, select the rotary encoder interface mode and protection levels.
Other factors not mentioned here.

Then select the rotary encoder models:

A. Service. Spare convenience, technical support team. When a problem occurs, there is technical support.
II. Brand. Good reputation manufacturers, have the appropriate alternative, and will not be bound by a supplier.
III. Cost. Able to accept.
IV. Exchange. Peers or neighbors have a precedent to use. to avoid detours.
V. Requirements. To meet the application. For example, it will affect the accuracy of the high processing speed; high level of protection will increase costs.
