Encoders

An encoder is an electrical component used to measure position, speed, and direction of a rotating shaft. It focuses on providing precise, reliable, and robust performance. The most common type of encoder is the incremental encoder, which is used to detect the position of a rotating shaft with respect to a predefined zero position. It is also used to measure the speed of the rotating shaft. One of the most popular and widely used encoders is the 62C1518-01-020S.

62C1518-01-020S Application Field

The 62C1518-01-020S incremental encoder is typically used in industrial and home automation applications. It is mainly used to determine the amount of rotation and speed of the rotating shaft and thus, allowing precise, accurate, and reliable data acquisition. Some of the most common industrial applications include quality control, motion control, robotics, power transmission, and automated assembly. It is also used in consumer electronics such as digital video recorders, keyboards, and touch screens.

62C1518-01-020S Working Principle

The 62C1518-01-020S encoder works on the principle of using two linear channels of output signals. The signals are generated by two photoelectric sensors arranged as a 90° cross-over on the same optical disk. The incremental encoder then generates linear channels of signals to a counting device as the disk rotates. The rotational motion of the shaft can then be measured in either direction.

The quadrature output ensures that when the phase difference between the two output signals of the encoder is measured, the mechanical displacement of the shaft is accurately calculated. This is due to the fact that when the optical disk rotates in one direction, a leading left channel signal will be outputted first followed by the right signal, and when the disk rotates in the opposite direction the right signal will be outputted first followed by the left signal.

The other key component of the 62C1518-01-020S encoder is its removable shaft. This allows the use of the same encoder in different applications. The shaft needs to be correctly aligned to the optical disk in order for the encoder to accurately determine the position and speed of the rotary shaft.

The 62C1518-01-020S encoder is also designed to provide a wide variety of output signals. The output signals can be tailored according to the application. For example, the output signal can be configured to give a Quadrature, RS422, parallel, SSI (synchronous serial interface), or incremental output.

Conclusion

The 62C1518-01-020S encoder is an incredibly useful device for many applications. It provides accurate, reliable, and robust performance, making it a popular choice for various industrial and home automation applications. It works on the principle of using two linear channels of output signals determined by the rotation of the shaft. Additionally, the removable shaft allows the encoder to be used in a variety of applications, while its wide variety of output signals makes it a versatile, but reliable device for any application.
