Encoders are used in a variety of applications ranging from industrial automation and robotics to military and aerospace product. An encoder is a device that converts the physical motion of a shaft or body into an electrical signal. The XHS35F-100-R2-SS-32-ABZC-28V/V-SM18 encoder is a type of rotary encoder designed for accurate electromechanical positioning systems, commonly known as “Absolute” encoders.

Application Field

The XHS35F-100-R2-SS-32-ABZC-28V/V-SM18 can be used in a number of applications such as motor control, mechanical measurements, robotics, machine vision, and image processing. It can be used to provide feedback on motor or machine position, speed, and acceleration allowing for the precise control of industrial, and manufacturing processes. Applications involve any high precision control such as crane and lift applications; medical equipment such as medical imaging systems; and automated guided vehicles.

Working Principle

The XHS35F-100-R2-SS-32-ABZC-28V/V-SM18 is an absolute encoder, which means that each distinct angular position of its shaft is represented by a unique binary digital signal or code. The encoder has a built-in Hall-effect sensor and is specifically designed for use with magnetic targets. The Hall-effect sensor measures the magnetic field generated by the target and sends back an electrical signal proportional to the magnetic field magnitude. The encoder then uses the electrical signal to generate a binary code that is proportional to the target position.

The XHS35F-100-R2-SS-32-ABZC-28V/V-SM18 is highly precise and provides 0.12° resolution (256 positions per full revolution). The encoder is typically used in applications requiring accurate readings of servo and stepper motor movements, machine tool accuracy and precise control. It can be used in conjunction with a controller or motor driver to provide precise encoder feedback in motor control or motion control applications.

The XHS35F-100-R2-SS-32-ABZC-28V/V-SM18 offers a number of advantages over other types of encoders. It is exceptionally reliable due to the use of solid-state components and its high immunity to electrical noise due to the use of the Hall-effect sensors. It is also highly accurate and can be employed in a wide range of industrial applications.
