Encoders
Voor positie- en toerentalregeling met een hogere resolutie biedt FAULHABER een breed aanbod aan encoders die gecombineerd kunnen worden met het complete portfolio aan borstelloze, DC- en stapmotoren van FAULHABER.
Magnetisch en optische 2- en 3-kanaals incrementele encoders met standaard kwadratuurresolutie van 16 tot 1024 impulsen per omwenteling of single-turn absolute encoders met een resolutie tot 10 000 stappen.
FAULHABER Motors are offered in combination with sensors and encoders. An encoder is a sensor for angle measurement that is usually used for speed or position control.
Incremental encoder
Incremental encoders transmit a specifi c number of uniformly distributed pulses per revolution. All FAULHABER Incremental Encoders have at least two channels: A and B. Both channels supply a square wave signal, shifted by 90 °e with respect to one another, i.e., one quarter cycle C. Through the shift of the pulses, the direction of rotation of the motor can be determined.
Absolute encoder
Unlike the incremental encoder, an absolute encoder determines absolute positions, not relative positions. After switching on the absolute encoder, an absolute return value is available for each position of the motor shaft. A distinction is made between single turn and multi turn encoders. The FAULHABER Absolute Encoders are single turn encoders. The FAULHABER Absolute Encoders support the SSI Interface with BISS-C Protocol. BISS-C supports communication with clock speeds of up to 2 MHz. Here, the absolute position value (DATA) is transferred in synch with a cycle (CLK) specifi ed by the controller.
