Novice must see ten elements of encoder selection

With the rapid development of modern industry, various automation products have sprung up on the market; for example, encoders, which are widely used in the steel industry, are widely used in various industries in modern industrial fields. , Such as controlling system speed and positioning in the steel industry, controlling the position of cutting paper in the printing industry, measuring the size of packaging paper in the packaging industry, and so on. Both in terms of technical function and cost, they are irreplaceable and cost-effective products in similar application environments. Based on the fact that new and old customers do not hate the use of encoders, non-professional users who generally use encoders often have a headache for product selection. In order to improve the service quality of the automation industry; okplazas.com has many years of professional experience in the automation industry, and I would like to share it with you.

First of all, let’s understand the basic working principle of the encoder; in the field of automation, the encoder is a sensor used to detect angle, position, speed and acceleration. It depends on the control of shaft, gear, measuring wheel or rope to detect movement. . The encoder also converts the actual mechanical parameter values into electrical signals, which can be processed by counters, tachometers, PLCs and industrial PCs. The main function of the encoder in the steel industry is to control the speed and positioning of the system.

Through the simple description of the working principle of the encoder, we can summarize the relevant factors of the encoder selection.
