Choosing the right incremental rotary encoder can seem like a puzzle, especially if you’re new to automation or industrial control systems. But don’t worry—it’s not rocket science! Incremental rotary encoders are essential components in many mechanical and electronic systems, translating rotational motion into electrical pulses to measure speed, position, or direction. They play a critical […]

An Incremental Rotary Encoder is a sensor that detects the rotation of a shaft or axle and converts it into an electrical signal. It is widely used in industrial automation, robotics, and many other applications to provide precise position, speed, and direction feedback. Understanding the incremental rotary encoder is crucial for selecting the right encoder […]

When you need to measure position or movement in automation, robotics, or industrial control, two names usually come up: encoder vs potentiometer. While both serve a similar purpose—providing position feedback—their working principles, strengths, and ideal use cases are very different. Let’s dig deeper into how these two popular sensors stack up so you can make […]

When you’re working with automation, robotics, or industrial control systems, you’ll often come across the term “encoder.” But have you ever stopped to wonder what the encoder symbols means in technical diagrams? Let’s break it down together—so the next time you see an encoder symbol, you’ll know exactly what you’re looking at and why it […]

If you’ve ever marveled at how a robot arm knows exactly where to stop, or wondered how a conveyor belt keeps things moving at just the right speed, you’ve already seen encoders at work—though you might not have realized it. Encoders are like the nervous system of modern machines. They sense movement and position, then […]
