Key benefits Converts rotational movement into precise digital pulse signals using a photoelectric scanning principle, enabling accurate position and speed control. Bidirectional pulse counting supports both positive and negative rotation, with unlimited counting capability and easy reset to the initial state when required. Stable and reliable output achieved by a readout method that compares two identical signals with a 180degree phase difference, improving noise rejection and signal integrity. Simple integration with motion control systems, providing clear, realtime feedback for reliable operation. How it works Incremental encoders are rotating sensors that transform rotation displacement into a digital pulse train used by motion controllers and position servos. The angular displacement is converted through a photoelectric scanning process to generate the output pulses. Pulses are counted in both directions (positive and negative rotation); counting is effectively unlimited and can be reset to reestablish the initial state as needed. The readout system uses two signals with the same waveform but a 180degree phase difference to enhance stability and reduce output fluctuations.
