An introduction to wind turbine encoders.Most double-feed induction generators require encoder feedback for top performance and line synchronization. But the high vibration and temperature extremes ...

Generally, a rotary encoder comes as a complete unit enclosed in a stator housing with a rotating shaft. The housing mounts to the bearing stator side, while the shaft couples to the bearing rotor.

Absolute rotary optical encoders use a disc to intercept light beams to create a pattern decoded by circuitry. Rotary encoders are specified for form factor, level of ruggedness, and resolution ...

Continuing his tradition of making bits of wire and scraps of wood work wonders, [HomoFaciens] is back with a unique and clever design for an electromechanical encoder. There are lots of ways to bu… ...
