MR-Encoder

ABSOLUTE ENCODER for AEROSPACE and Hi-Rel APPLICATIONS

The MACCON MR-Encoder has been developed for the measurement of absolute position in extreme
physical environments, such as aviation- and space applications, with a resolution up to 19 Bits. The MR-
Encoder consists of one reading head and one measurement wheel.

Benefits of the MR-encoder reading heads:

 
  • The sensor head is fully passive with NO integrated electronics and is based on the GMR effect
    (Giant Magneto-resistance)
  • Due to its simplicity and passive structure the MR encoder head is highly robust and reliable
  • Encoder rings can be scaled to fit the application; hollow-shaft designs can be easily implemented
  • Highly flexible with regard to positioning and mounting of the reading head(s)
  • Accurate, light and low power consumption
  • Measurement is absolute over 360° (temporary position loss can be immediately corrected) due to
    analogue cosine and sine position signals of the reading heads.
  • Duplication of reading heads allows direct implementation of multiple redundancy
  • Insensitive to environmental influences, such as radiation fields and vacuum condition, as well as to
    temperature, vibration and shock.
  • An optional external signal conversion box (SSI and SPI) can be connected to the reading head
    analogue signals for the conversion to SSI and SPI absolute position.
