DP11HN15B20P

Encoders are devices used to measure the angular or linear displacement of a shaft, a linear displacement of a slide, or a rotary angle of a shaft in reference to a signal provided by a primary static reference. The most commonly used are the DP11HN15B20P encoders.

The DP11HN15B20P encoder is a high-performance incremental encoder used in various industrial automation systems. It is typically used to provide feedback on motor shafts and is employed when frequent position changes are required. This type of encoder offers long-term stability, fast response, and high resolution. The DP11HN15B20P encoder features a high Signal frequency, automatic pulse divergence, and relatively high mechanical resolutions.

This type of encoder can be used in a wide variety of industrial automation applications, including Robotics, Automotive, Medical, HVAC, and Machine Tooling systems. Its broad range of features makes it suitable for numerous applications in these fields.

The working principle of a DP11HN15B20P encoder is simple. It consists of a rotating shaft that is coupled to a ring of components. This ring contains a set of optical disks, each with a unique arrangement of transparent and opaque areas. When the shaft rotates, the disk rotates in synchrony. The pattern of transparency and opacity of the disk is detected by optical photo interrupters and converted into a corresponding electrical output signal. This signal is then used to measure the rotational angle or position of the shaft.

In addition to measuring angular displacement, this type of encoder can also be used to track linear motion. This is done using a combination of a rotating shaft and a sliding block. The linear displacement of the sliding block is encoded onto the shaft and can be tracked using the same type of optical disk described above.

The DP11HN15B20P encoder is a versatile device used in many industrial automation systems. Its wide range of features make it suitable for many applications, including Robotics, Automotive, Medical, HVAC, and Machine Tooling systems. It is a reliable and accurate way to measure angular or linear displacement.
