Company Name:
Encoder Products Co.  Search this
Notes content:
Optical shaft encoders used for motion feedback ; motion sensing devices ; An encoder is a device (transducer) that is used to convert rotary or linear motion into useful information. The primary parameters determined are speed, rate, velocity, distance, position, or direction. A typical application will use one or more of these parameters as feedback to the controller in a motion control system. EPC's rugged and reliable encoders are particularly suited to the most challenging applications in process and machine control, motor feedback, factory automation, robotics, web tensioning, etc. In addition to these applications, rotary optical encoders can also provide electronic commutation in brushless servo systems. http://www.encoder.com/typusage.html optical switch ; "accu-coder" incremental shaft encoder...this comprises the uncataloged portion.
