The AEAS-72AA has an encoder diameter of 38 mm and is rated at IP50 with no liquid protection. This unit provides 8-bit resolution, gray code output, and a solid-shaft configuration.

Rotary encoders are indispensable tools for providing position feedback in many motion-control and automation processes. Lifts, overhead monorails, automated storage and retrieval systems, and ...

Absolute encoders produce a parallel binary-code output that indicates an exact position in one shaft revolution. The use of the Gray binary code minimizes the errors in determining position.

At the same time, demand for customized high-end optical encoder sensors is also growing. We saw an opportunity to address both developments in tandem,” says TT’s Walter Brooks. The FlexSense sensor ...
