What is Linear Encoder?
A linear encoder refers to a device or sensor providing a signal and digital or analog to the controller built on a position measurement. There are several technologies that are utilized for measuring and assessing the linear position, including laser, transformation, and magnetostriction. Linear Encoders consist of a scale, and reader's head, which comprises of coil assembly and supportive electronics, providing sine-cosine feedback or quadrature square wave signals that enable direct integration to special electronic amplifier applications. These encoders operate based on electromagnetic induction.
