HAYDON Kerk Motion Solutions is now offering an integrated magnetic encoder available on the 1” 25000 series linear actuators.
When combined with the Haydon can-stack linear actuator, the company says excellent position feedback can be obtained for use in critical applications including analysis devices and robotics. The 64 line quadrature encoder system utilises a high energy neodymium magnet and provides an 8 bit digital resolution resulting in a total of 256 output pulses per revolution.
The encoder provides 90 degree phase shifted A/B output channels along with a single index pulse for every complete shaft rotation.
