Incremental Encoders: Still the Workhorse of Industrial Automation Incremental encoders are not a new technology, but they are still widely used in industrial automation. The reason is simple: in many machines, the system does not always need absolute position. What matters more is speed, movement change, response time, and stable feedback. Wherever speed control, counting,…

The “Brain” of Industrial Automation A PLC, or Programmable Logic Controller, is an industrial controller designed to control machines and automated processes. It receives signals from buttons, sensors, encoders, and other devices, then follows a programmed logic to control motors, valves, cylinders, conveyors, and other equipment. I. Why Is a PLC Important? In factories, many…

From automation systems and manufacturing to heavy machinery, linear displacement is vital to operations in the manufacturing world. This is where a linear wire displacement sensor comes into play, providing precise position sensing over both short and long ranges, with a linear output. To convert a measured object into electrical signals, a sensor uses a…

Current industries are not ideal. They are subjected to dust, water, vibration and other mechanical stresses. Thus, under these conditions, an accurate measurement is a must. For this, you need to draw wire transducers. The wire transducers provide reliable linear position sensing with robustness and stability under tough operating conditions. The draw wire transducer is…
