FLUX GmbH, a high-precision encoder company, has published a whitepaper that examines the benefits of FLUX inductive technology in enabling next-generation performance across robotics, medical, aerospace, and defense applications.
"FLUX Inductive Rotary Encoders, which have become increasingly popular in various applications, are recognized for their robustness, low axial profile, and high resolution and accuracy," said a company spokesperson. "The paper outlines six compelling reasons to choose FLUX inductive encoders and two scenarios where they may not be the best fit."
Inductive rotary encoders operate on the principles of electromagnetic induction, consisting of a rotor and a stator with conductive patterns. As the rotor turns, it interacts with inductive sensors in the stator, generating changes in the electromagnetic field that are converted into digital signals. This technology allows for modern communication protocols such as SSI, BiSS-C, SPI, and traditional incremental square waves.
Key advantages of FLUX inductive encoders include:
- High accuracy and resolution: They provide real-time feedback with no hysteresis, making them suited for applications requiring precise motion control, such as robotics and CNC machinery. Their design compensates for various factors, enabling drift-free performance.
- Durability in harsh environments: FLUX encoders are built to withstand extreme conditions, including dirt, vibration, and electromagnetic interference, making them suitable for demanding applications.
- Compact design: With an installed thickness as small as 5.8 mm, these encoders are lightweight and easy to integrate into space-constrained applications, offering flexible mounting options.
- Immunity to magnetic interference: FLUX encoders do not require additional shielding against magnetic interference.
- Ultra-low signal latency: This feature allows for real-time control, enhancing the performance of motion control systems.
- Flexible customization: They can be tailored for various sizes and mounting configurations to meet specific application needs.
The paper also emphasizes the importance of global support, including technical assistance, system integration guidance, and reliable after-sales service to help ensure long-term operational performance.
