Posital
Multiturn encoder for micromotors
Posital launches miniaturized 22 mm multiturn kit encoders for small and micro drives. Until now, small and micro motors were at best equipped with single-turn or incremental encoders.
The compact magnetic multiturn kits pave the way for complete motor feedback. Even in the event of a sudden power failure and system standstill, the energy-autonomous counting electronics of the mini kits remain in position. It seamlessly tracks the movement of the trailing shaft in a de-energized state and transmits the buffered position values precisely and seamlessly to the central control system when the system is restarted.
With their compact footprint (diameter: 22 mm, height: 23 mm), the mounting kits, which weigh just 35 g, are a perfect fit for the most common micromotors. According to the manufacturer Posital, they can be easily integrated into existing motor designs. With SSI and Biss C, two manufacturer-independent interfaces are available. The calibration function is integrated: After briefly turning the shaft, the kit automatically adjusts itself to the motor and stores the parameters in the memory.
