Structure
The absolute encoder with an asynchronous interface is a typical combi encoder. In addition to a sin/cos signal for recording the speed and for information on the absolute value, this encoder also has a typical electronic nameplate in which the drive data can be saved, among other things. This makes startup easier and reduces possible input faults by the user, as they do not have to enter any drive data.
Absolute encoders with an asynchronous interface are available as:
- Add-on encoders for asynchronous motors and synchronous servomotors
- Built-in encoders for synchronous servomotors
Both are available in a single-turn design and in a multi-turn design.
