AM36-AMC36 ROTARY ENCODERS

AM36-AMC36. Encoders are feedback devices that measure and communicate position and speed across a system. They most commonly measure linear and rotary motion. Encoders may vary in their detection methods, including the use of optics and magnetics, as well as in how they signal the reading, in a closed- or open-loop circuit. These affect the accuracy, speed and format at which they deliver feedback and can be mixed and matched to fit the demands of the particular application.

The physical construction can also vary from sealed and rugged to protect delicate measuring hardware and bearings from harsh environments, to exposed encoders that operate in more controlled environments.

Industries Where Encoders Are Used

Industrial Robotics

They aren’t taking over just yet, but robots are more applicable and effective in a growing number of areas and especially for use in operations like welding, material handling, assembly and grinding. Since there is typically limited human oversite or monitoring, these robots must have reliable encoders to help guide their movement.

Machine Tool Building

Today’s machine tools often require extreme accuracy to achieve the fine finishes and tolerances while working with ever-shrinking components. What’s more, while these machines have long used encoders to move their various X, Y and Z axes, now-popular simultaneous 5-axis machines place even more of a premium on precise speed and location.

This encoder helps allow for accurate movement of X, Y and Z axes that are accelerated at staggering rates.
