rotary encoders for robotics
Rotary encoders for robotics: The key to success
Enhance the design, assembly and reliable operation of your robots
with the KCI 120 Dplus dual encoders and the KCI 1319, KBI 1335, KCI 120 and KBI 136 encoders from HEIDENHAIN.
Whatever your axis design, HEIDENHAIN has the optimal rotary encoder. If the gear shaft passes through the motor shaft, then your best choice is a dual encoder featuring a scanning unit and two rotor units. For more conventional axes, you can achieve high accuracy with a primary encoder on the motor and a secondary encoder on the output end of the axis. In both of these scenarios, HEIDENHAIN offers robust inductive rotary encoder solutions.
How rotary encoders meet design and assembly challenges
Robots need to be increasingly fast, precise, compact and cost-effective for a growing range of applications. Rotary encoders play a critical role in robot design and production. They must be matched to the given space, cabling, sensors, precision and tolerances. Installation should be efficient. Find out what to consider.
