Chicago, July 1, 2003-- Danaher Controls has published its first handbook for the application of encoders for motion control. Intended as a handy reference guide for experienced engineers and a tutorial for engineers still learning about encoders, the Danaher Controls Encoder Applications Handbook covers all encoder technologies, their different applications, their communications, as well as installation advice.
Filled with diagrams and tables, the Encoder Applications Handbook is useful for any encoder application, ranging from office and medical equipment to robotics and heavy equipment used in steel production.
The handbook explains the different sensing technologies used in encoders, as well as the basic application types: rotary incremental, linear incremental, and rotary absolute. Each of these types are sold by Danaher Controls under the well known Dynapar, Northstar, and Hengstler brands.
