We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rotate ...

Schaumburg, IL, June 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HEIDENHAIN is proud to announce the release of its next generation of RENCO brand rotary encoders to the market. This new generation includes an ...

These AMT series encoders from AutomationDirect can be set for most models using the free AMT Viewpoint software and they also offer line driver and push-pull output signals configurable up to 4096 ...

An interesting trend in industrial motion control has been the replacement of self-contained encoders (rotation sensors with their own housing, bearings and shaft) with modular or “kit” encoders.

Festo’s new stepper motor series — EMMT-ST — features absolute encoders, IP65 protection, holding brakes and control via a single cable. OEMs have the choice of an absolute single-turn encoder or ...

Makers, developers and Arduino enthusiasts searching for silent stepper drivers with high resolution encoders which are also Arduino compatible. May be interested in the new range of uStepper S line ...

Encoders are fantastically useful devices for human-machine interfacing. The issue for the makers, teachers, students, and engineers trying to use them is that many have less-than-ideal output signals ...

Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...
