Chandraveer, a seasoned mechanical design engineer turned tech reporter and reviewer, brings more than three years of rich experience in consumer tech journalism to the table, having contributed to ...

Simply put, streaming video has never been bigger. With audiences, employees, and students spread out across the world, it’s streaming technology that’s keeping everyone connected. But for pro-grade ...

POSITAL’s new IXARC safety and redundant multiturn kit encoders provide compact, cost-efficient and highly reliable solutions ...

The FOT variants of the KCI 1300 inductive encoders from Heidenhain can also serve as a bearing cover. A growing trend in encoder technology is the integration of additional sensors to add diagnostic ...

Rotary encoders sense changes in the position of a rotating shaft, then generate signals that send speed, direction, and position information to a receiving device such as a counter, drive, or ...

Rotary encoders are great devices. Monitoring just a few pins you can easily and quickly read in rotation and direction of a user input (as well as many other applications). But as with anything, ...

An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...

It takes considerable time and effort to manufacture “perfect” surfaces. The mirrors on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, with a surface area of about 25 m 2 and finished to accuracies of 25 nm, took ...

Myriad applications require custom torque motors — including hard-machining table drives, mirror millers, and measuring and grinding machines. In fact, machine builders for these applications are now ...
