Company News - February 2022
Today, automation is all around
us—and the demands are greater than ever. Engineers must answer the call for
dynamic automation solutions that are safe and efficient.
HEIDENHAIN encoders are
well suited to support these needs—including fast-cycle-time applications that
require external sensor information (such as temperature). The selection of a
rotary encoder or encoder technology for use within the system depends on the
accuracy requirements of the application whether it is position and/or velocity
control.
E-Motion would like to help
our customers
choose a rotary encoder for an automation project.
What to Consider When Choosing a
Rotary Encoder
Controlled servo drives are used in many areas of
automation technology, converting, printing, handling, and robotics including
production machines and machine tools. The selection of a rotary encoder or
encoder technology for use within the system depends on the accuracy
requirement of the application whether it is position and/or velocity
control.
Before making an encoder decision, an engineer
should examine this and all the major encoder properties that have the largest
influence on important motor performance. These include:
- Positioning accuracy
- Speed stability
- Audible Noise, as little as possible
- Power loss
- Bandwidth, which determines drive command-signal
response
Why HEIDENHAIN Rotary Encoders?
- High resolutions for smooth speed control
- Proven robustness
- Compact size and simple installation
- Options available with Functional Safety up to SIL 3

Beyond Automation
February 1, 2022 is the most important day with the start of the Lunar New Year.
The Lunar New Year, also known as Spring Festival, is being celebrated worldwide,
with dances, music, fun and festivities to mark the end of the year of the Ox
and the start of the year of the Tiger.
