Incremental encoder working principle!

An encoder is a rotational transducer converting an angular movement into a series of electrical digital pulses. If associated to racks or endless screws, these generated pulses can be used to control angular or linear movements. During rotation, electrical signals can be elaborated by numerical controls (CNC), programmable logic controls (PLC), control systems, etc. Main applications of these transducer are: machinery, robots, motor feedback, measure and control devces. In Eltra’s encoders the angular movement transduction is based on the photoelectric scanning principle. The reading system is based on the rotation of the radial graduated disk formed by opaque windows and transparent ones alternated. The system is perpendicularly illuminated by an infrared light source. The light projects the disk image on the receivers surface which are covered by a grating called collimator having the same disk steps. The receivers trasduce the light variation occurring with the disk shifting, converting them into their corresponding electrical variations. Electrical signals raised to generate squared pulses without any interference must be electronically processed. The reading system is always carried out in differential modality, in order to compare different signals nearly identical but out of phase for 180 electrical degrees. That in order to increase quality and stability of output signals . The reading is designed comparing the difference between the two channels eliminating the disturb note as “shifted common way” because signals are overlapped in equal way on every kind of wave.
