Operating Principle of Incremental Encoder-Roundssencoder！

Incremental encoder (encoder type selection) is the displacement into periodic electrical signal, then change the electrical signals into counting pulses, pulse number indicate the size of the displacement.

Operating Principle of Incremental encoder：

Uniform grating engraved on the shaft to rotate together with the pulse encoder on the code disk evenly distributed in a number of light transmission section and blackout zone. Incremental encoder is no fixed starting zero, the output is proportional to the pulse increment corner, the counter needs to count the number of pulses. Each turned a light transmission area, it sends a pulse signal, the current value of the counter is incremented, increment the counting result corresponds to the corner. The encoder is the angular displacement or linear displacement into electrical signals a device.

The former becomes encoder, which said the yardstick. Readout method according to the encoder can be divided into touch and non-touch two. Touch selection brush output, a brush touch conductive or insulating zone area to indicate the status of the code is "1" is still "0"; a non-touch-sensitive element is subjected to a photosensitive element or magnetic components, the selection of the photosensitive member In the photic zone and opaque regions to indicate the status of the code is "1" is still "0."
