Description

H40-8-0100ZT A rotary encoder, also called a shaft encoder, is an electro-mechanical device that converts the angular position or motion of a shaft or axle into an analog or digital output signal. There are two main types of rotating encoders: absolute and incremental. Rotary encoders are used to control the speed of the conveyor belt as well as the direction of movement. They are needed in warehouse delivery systems, luggage handling systems and case-packing systems.
