Novotechnik - New 5 mm Flat Angle and Speed Sensors

Vert-X 05E Series sensors measure angles from 0 to 360°, rotational speed and direction.

Southborough, MA… Novotechnik, U.S. introduces the Vert-X 05E Series of dual angle/speed sensors. The series features easy mounting in small and narrow spaces with a 5 mm body depth and mounting flanges with metal inserts.

The sensors also feature measurement only 6 mm from edge of product for close-to-wall measurement applications. Vert-X 05E Series sensors measure angles from 0 to 360°, rotational speed and direction.

Other key specifications include independent linearity to ±0.3% of measurement range, resolution to 12-bits (analog output) and 1,024 pulses per revolution (incremental outputs), repeatability to 0.1°. Measurement speeds are up to 120,000 RPM. Vert-X 05E life is specified as unlimited mechanical movements and 390 years MTBF.

Vert-X 05E output choices include 0.5 to 4.5 V analog as well as incremental including: TTL, differential RS-422, push-pull/HTL and open collector.
Operating temperature range is -40 to +125°C and Vert-X 05E is rated at IP68 for ingress protection. Applications include speed regulation of an electric motor, electric vehicle drive, crane, escalator, flowmeter, pump, fork lift, construction, and agricultural machines.

FAULHABER MICROMO - Impressive accuracy through the latest chip technology

With the launch of the IEP3, FAULHABER expands its product line with an incremental encoder which, thanks to the latest chip technology, achieves a very high resolution and accuracy. With a diameter of just 8 mm, the IEP3 is very lightweight and compact yet still offers a resolution of up to 10,000 lines per revolution - made possible by the latest chip technology with high interpolation. In the standard version, the resolution is freely programmable from 1 - 4,096 lines per revolution. Moreover, the chip technology that is used ensures a high positional accuracy of typically 0.3 °m as well as a high repeatability of typically 0.05 °m thanks to accuracy compensation.
