AEAT-6012-A06

Encoders

Encoders are a type of device used to measure motion and position within an electrical or mechanical system. They are used in a wide variety of applications from basic manufacturing processes to robotics, spacecraft and aviation. The AEAT-6012-A06 is a type of rotary encoder, which is designed to detect rotational positions and/or speeds of rotating shafts or axles. It is often used in motor control and monitoring systems, as well as in product alignment systems.

AEAT-6012-A06 Application Field and Working Principle

The AEAT-6012-A06 is a high performance, non-contact, angle-measuring, rotation encoder measuring absolute angle position for a shaft rotating between 0 and 360 degrees. It is based on a non-contact magnetic field sensing technology, which is extremely popular and reliable due to its many advantages, including: high resolution and accuracy, immunity to shock and vibration, no moving parts, low power consumption, no momentum interaction, and long-term stability. The AEAT-6012-A06 consists of a transmitting module and a receiving module, with a rotating magnet attached to the shaft of the motor. The magnet is surrounded by 12 concentric segments. Each segment will generate a different feedback voltage in the receiving module depending on the rotation.

The transmitting module consists of a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly enclosed in the housing that serves as a magnetically shielded environment. Inside the housing, two coils—one for transmitting and one for receiving—are embedded in the PCB. The transmitting module generates a continuous sinusoidal AC voltage in the transmitting coil, while the receiving coil changes its output voltage depending on the position of the magnet attached to the rotating shaft.

The AEAT-6012-A06 also has a temperature compensation feature. The effect of temperature on the output signal can be reduced or compensated for by changing the values of a few components in the PCB. This feature is useful for applications where temperature fluctuations are common, such as in robotics or aerospace applications.

The AEAT-6012-A06 is a self-contained encoder that requires no external power supply. The encoder can be used in applications with a wide range of voltage and power requirements. It is also highly resistant to interference, has superior shock and vibration immunity, and is extremely accurate and reliable. It has been designed and tested to meet military standards for extreme environments, making it a reliable choice for many applications.

The AEAT-6012-A06 is a highly versatile, reliable, and accurate encoder that is used for a wide range of applications where the ability to accurately measure rotation is required. Its onboard temperature compensation feature makes it ideal for applications where temperature fluctuation is common, such as in robotics and aerospace engineering. The encoder’s high shock and vibration immunity ensures it will function accurately and reliably, even in extreme environments. Its self-contained design requires no external power supply and makes it an ideal choice for applications with varied voltage and power requirements.
