TRINAMIC-Incremental encoder for BLDC motors

Monitoring drives not only improves the efficiency of applications, but also tells you their status. With the advancement of the fourth industrial revolution, predictive maintenance will become more and more important under the impetus of smart ICs and encoders.

　　 Hamburg, Germany, March 11, 2019: BLDC motors are known for their durability, efficiency and controllability. However, although durability and efficiency are inherent to the brushless DC motors themselves, the ability to control them depends on the feedback mechanism used. This is why TRINAMIC motion control company introduced ABN encoder for BLDC motor: TMCS-28-x-1024.

　　 "Incremental encoders are a key factor in the use of BLDC motors," said Michael Randt. "Not only can they improve application performance, they can also reduce engineers' increasing pressure on miniaturization and efficiency by allowing smaller drives."

　　The optical incremental encoder of the brushless DC motor can drive the motor with the torque and speed required by the application, so that it can use a smaller drive in the application and open up new markets for it. In addition, encoders like the TMCS-28-x-1024 ABN encoder can also perform predictive maintenance when used correctly.

　　 More and more indicators indicate that in the near future, applications will be able to predict when parts need to be calibrated, check for wear, and even need to be replaced. Tracking runtime is one way, but tracking the exact number of processing and processing type is more accurate.

　　 Use brushless DC motor encoders, or other feedback system methods, such as the closed-loop IC of stepper motors, predictive maintenance can be built into any application. In this way, the incremental encoder can not only improve efficiency by driving the motor as much as possible, but also further improve efficiency by reducing downtime to a limit.
