PRODUCT DESCRIPTION / OVERVIEW
Advantage of the Encoders:
- High positioning accuracy is achieved by combining features of permanent-magnet and variable-reluctance motors, typically offering 1.8° or finer step angles for precise open-loop positioning.
- Excellent torque at low speeds delivers high holding and low-speed torque, making the motor ideal for start-stop, indexing, and positioning applications.
- Repeatable and reliable motion ensures consistent performance with high repeatability and non-cumulative error over long operating cycles.
- Simple open-loop control allows operation without encoders or feedback systems, reducing overall system complexity, cost, and maintenance.
- High holding torque when powered maintains position firmly at standstill, making it suitable for vertical loads and load-holding applications.
- Smooth motion with microstepping support reduces vibration, noise, and resonance, improving motion smoothness and positioning resolution.
- A wide range of frame sizes, including standard NEMA sizes, enables suitability for both compact designs and high-load industrial applications.

FAQs
An encoder is a sensing device used to measure position, speed, direction, or rotation of a motor shaft and convert this motion into electrical signals that can be read by a controller.
The main types of encoders are incremental encoders, which provide relative position and speed information, and absolute encoders, which provide exact position information even after power is turned off.
Encoders are used with motors to enable precise motion control, feedback, and closed-loop operation, ensuring accurate positioning, speed regulation, and improved system reliability.
Encoder resolution refers to the number of pulses or counts generated per revolution of the shaft. Higher resolution provides finer position accuracy and smoother motion control.
Encoders are commonly used in robotics, CNC machines, medical devices, automation systems, servo motors, stepper motors with feedback, and industrial motion control applications.
