What Is an IO-Link Absolute Rotary Encoder?

There are rotary encoders and IO-Link products, but what is an IO-Link absolute rotary encoder? It may be best to start with the rotary encoder. The rotary encoder is an electro-mechanical device that converts angular position into a digital signal. The rotary encoder can be incremental or absolute, depending on the need to know the exact position after a power cycle.

Four Ways That Omron’s New K7GE Helps Minimize Downtime and Improve Productivity

Many manufacturers use time-consuming and potentially dangerous manual processes to inspect servo motors for insulation issues. If this sounds like your company, it might be time to switch over to an automated, remote-based servo motor condition monitoring solution that works around the clock. Omron’s new K7GE remote servo condition monitor is part of their predictive maintenance solution offering that’s designed to help manufacturers minimize downtime without sacrificing productivity.

Presenting the Roxtec EC Test Stick

The new Roxtec electrical continuity test stick enables you to check the electrical performance of cable transit installations using Roxtec BG or ES sealing modules. Just attach it to the cable shield or armor during installation to ensure a measuring point outside each sealing module. Then use any electrical continuity tester to measure the resistance between the cable shield or armor and the frame to get a quick indication of the electrical performance of the system.

DOLD: Safe Sensorless Standstill Monitoring

The safe sensorless standstill monitor UG 6946 from the SAFEMASTER S series detects the standstill of 3-phase and 1-phase motors independent of the direction of rotation. This means sensors such as encoders or proximity switches are not required. Access to the danger zone of a system is only possible by the enabling signal of the standstill monitor after the drive has been switched off and run down.
