Rotary encoders working process.！

For industrial control of the positioning problem, generally use proximity switches, photoelectric switches and other devices. With the continuous development of industrial control, there has been a rotary encoder, which is characterized by:
1, information: In addition to positioning, control room can also know the specific location;
2, flexible: positioning can be flexible adjustment in the control room;
3, easy installation and safety, long service life.
A rotary encoder can measure distances from a few microns to tens of several hundred meters. Multiple stations, as long as the use of a rotary encoders, you can avoid the use of more than the proximity switch, photoelectric switch, to solve the on-site mechanical installation trouble, easy to be damaged and high temperature, water and gas problems.
As is the optical encoder, no mechanical wear, as long as the installation location is accurate, its service life is often very long.
4, multi-functional: In addition to positioning, but also remote location, conversion speed, for the inverter, stepper motor and other applications is particularly important.
5, economic: for a number of control stations, only a rotary encoder, installation, maintenance, loss of cost reduction, increased service life.
In view of the above advantages, rotary encoders have been more and more widely used in various industrial occasions.
Encoder (encoder) is the physical signal preparation, conversion can be used to communication, transmission and storage of a signal device. Used in speed control or position control system detection components.
