Linear Encoders
-
Linear encoders measure the position of linear axes without intervening mechanical elements. This eliminates a series of potential error sources such as backlash, pitch error, or heating of the recirculating ball screw. Wherever rigorous position accuracy and high machining speeds are needed, linear encoders are essential.

Panasonic Encoders convert the manual rotary operation of an actuator or knob into coded signal outputs. The operation is similar to Potentiometers but the output signal is different in that it is a repeated pulse signal rather than a continuous analog signal. Panasonic Encoders offer options such as high torque, push lock, long life, push-on switch, water proof and center space.

Citizen Chiba Precision Co., Ltd.
Miniaturized AC servomotor linear actuators are a type of rectilinear actuator which achieves high precision positioning as well as miniaturization and weight reduction.The motor portion utilizes a hollow AC servomotor, while the encoder portion utilizes a miniaturized and high resolution optical rotary encoder. Since its direct design does not utilize parts such as gears, this makes precise and high resolution positioning possible.In addition to the above characteristics, the MAB and MALB series utilize ball screws that allowed realization of high speed and long service life.

Absolute Optical Encoder
A2
-
Product DescriptionRestriction of Hazardous SubstancesThe A2 absolute encoder is a non-contacting optical rotary position sensor which reports the shaft angle within a 360 deg. range. As opposed to incremental encoders, the A2 reports the absolute position rather than the change in position. When powered up, it does not require a home cycle, even if the shaft was rotated while the power was off. In multi-turn mode, it tracks the position in a 32-bit counter as long as the power supply is maintained. Internally, an infrared LED flashes through a circular bar code onto a linear array sensor. The microcontroller decodes the image into a unique position. All user programmable parameters such as resolution, origin, direction and mode are permanently stored in an internal EEPROM

Linear Amplifiers
LA Series
-
Motion Control Systems'' linear amplifiers are high performance servo controllers that produce very smooth sinusoidal motor currents using a linear amplifier output stage. In combination with a sinusoidally wound MCS brushless motor, the linear amplifier can achieve extremely precise rotational control with less than 1% torque ripple, no acoustic noise and almost undetectable levels of electromagnetic interference. Standard programmable features allow greater design flexibility, easy installation and start-up.
