Absolute Rotary Encoders Meet More Motion Control Needs

SCHAUMBURG, IL (June 2013) – To meet the demand in more motion control applications, HEIDENHAIN has once again expanded its rotary encoder product line with either EnDat or SSI optical absolute encoders to include additional TTL and HTL signals! The new ROQ / EQN 425 rotary encoder is available with a solid shaft or hollow shaft with a mounted stator coupling. These encoders were designed and developed for a variety of applications, starting with those in the wind energy sector. The absolute signal (EnDat or SSI) within these encoders is used to measure the pitch of the rotor blades as
