These kit encoders enable manufacturers of servomotors and other machinery to build rotary position measurements into their products. They are based on Posital’s self-contained magnetic rotary encoders; however the core components of these instruments are available as separate assemblies that can be integrated into other products. The components offer multi-turn measurement capabilities and provide digital outputs. An all-electronic multi-turn absolute position measuring capability evaluates the full absolute angular position, including the total number of shaft rotations. The electronic components, including Hall-effect sensors, a 32-bit microprocessor and the Wiegand-wire energy harvesting system, are packaged in a 36-mm-diameter, 24.2-mm-deep unit.
