"Our new SFD-M encoder provides multi-turn absolute functionality with exceptional position accuracy and resolution at zero additional cost over Kollmorgen motors with single-turn encoders," said ...

Many motors offer a quadrature encoder that give feedback on whether, and in which direction, the motor shaft is moving. But if you’re clever about analyzing the data you can use a quadrature ...

Designed to work with AKD and AKD2G drives, the SFD-M absolute multi-turn encoder can be integrated into Kollmorgen-housed servo motors.

The SFD-M measures the position of the rotor shaft throughout each 360º rotation without requiring reference to a home ...
