Miniature kit encoder offers advanced options for high-speed spindle applications |
Motor
Technology has launched an advanced version of
Lenord + Bauer’s ultra precise miniature
kit encoder for measuring speed and position in high-speed spindle
applications, such as cutting and drilling. The new
GEL 2443 is bristling with new features and options including the
addition of a new application-specific integrated circuit that allows
pre-programming at the factory avoiding the need to assemble the calibration
circuitry by hand.
Able to handle speeds of over 70,000rpm and spindles ranging in size from just 8mm to over 500mm, the new sensors can be ordered with an amplitude-control option that provides automatic adjustment of the output signals in case of sensor misalignment or temperature changes. The EMC behaviour has also been improved, making the new sensor easier to integrate into the control loop.
The
GEL 2443 is available with sine/cosine
signals (1Vpp), ZERO flag or groove detection and optional amplitude control.
Accessories include standard and custom tooth-wheels, as well as a range of
interpolation electronics, which can provide TTL square wave signals to the
customer’s electronics.
