An optical encoder is an electronic device that converts the position or motion of an object into an electrical signal. It uses light to detect the position or rotation of an encoder disk or linear scale, which is then translated into a digital signal. Optical encoders are commonly used in industrial automation, robotics, and CNC machines to provide accurate and reliable feedback on position, speed, and direction.
According to its calibration method and signal output form, photoelectric encoders can be divided into three types: incremental, absolute, and hybrid. At present, Hengxiang can provide you with incremental and absolute photoelectric encoders
