An absolute rotary encoder works by using a rotating disc with slits cut inside of them, which resemble the spokes on a bicycle tire. This rotating disc is placed in front of a light source and light transducer, such as in the case of an optical\u00a0rotary encoder, or it can be outfitted with a magnetic sensor that detects changes in magnetic energy, such as in an\u00a0electromagnetic\u00a0encoder.<\/p>\n<p>Both types of absolute rotary encoders produce an output signal which can be translated digitally into specific information about an object&#8217;s movement and absolute position. To do so, the following occurs:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The rotating disc, also known as an\u00a0<strong>optical disc<\/strong>, spins around a hollow shaft, allowing light to enter only in areas that have open slits. The rest of the disc is opaque, blocking out light and signals.<\/li>\n<li><em><strong>The light<\/strong> enters the disc and passes through the slits of the disc. This light is fixed and is not disturbed by outside light sources. Many encoders use infrared lights for feedback.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>There is a <strong>specific pattern<\/strong> cut into the rotary disc of absolute encoders. Based on the signals per revolution, the light being transmitted, or a magnetic signal being interpreted, the transducer in the absolute rotary encoder produces a digital signal.<\/li>\n<li><em>The <strong>digital signal<\/strong> is delivered to another system that interprets the exact position of an object based on the signals received.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>At Assun Motors, we carry a line of absolute rotary encoders that reveal exact position of an object, even after there is a power outage. Our encoders produce a digital signal through optical and electromagnetic fields. We have rotary encoders, which are the most popular <a href=\"https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/types-of-encoders\/\">types of encoders<\/a> on the market and the easiest to place into your existing configuration.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Absolute_Encoder_Output\"><\/span>Absolute Encoder Output<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_2817\" style=\"width: 2392px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2817\" class=\"wp-image-2817 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output.png\" alt=\"Assunmotor's Absolute Encoder Output\" width=\"2382\" height=\"566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output.png 2382w, https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output-300x71.png 300w, https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output-1024x243.png 1024w, https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output-768x182.png 768w, https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output-1536x365.png 1536w, https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output-2048x487.png 2048w, https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output-750x178.png 750w, https:\/\/assunmotor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/assunmotor-absolute-encoder-output-1140x271.png 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2382px) 100vw, 2382px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2817\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Assunmotor&#8217;s Absolute Encoder Output<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Reading the output signal of an absolute encoder is a bit more complex than reading the output signal of an incremental encoder. Unlike an absolute encoder, an incremental encoder sits on a rotating shaft and has a disc with a uniform pattern of slits. You can imagine these slits look like a pie, cut uniformly throughout the disc.<\/p>\n<p>Incremental encoders work much the same as absolute encoders, but they only produce limited information. An incremental encoder produces an output signal that reveals information about the relative position of an object, but not its true position. It does so by using a known fixed position for reference.<\/p>\n<p>Using information from the fixed position, incremental encoders can provide information on the relative distance of an object and information such as counts. It produces a signal that appears as a &#8220;A&#8221; or &#8220;B&#8221; square wave, or a cosine wave.<\/p>\n<p>However, an absolute encoder provides a digital data stream, such as a serial synchronous interface or SSI. This is a digital signal that reads between 0 to 10 volts or 4 to 20 mA. These signals give highly accurate position information through a unique code.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_of_Using_Absolute_Encoders\"><\/span>Advantages of Using Absolute Encoders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are several advantages to using absolute encoders. For starters, absolute encoders provide accurate information and the unique position data of an object. This means that you can know exactly where a product or part is on your assembly line at all times. This is much different than an incremental encoder, which is best reserved for smaller applications that don&#8217;t require positional feedback but do require information such as counts and distance.<\/p>\n<p>If your company requires position feedback due to\u00a0functional safety\u00a0reasons, absolute encoders are also a good choice. In addition, an absolute encoder saves you time on programming. While incremental encoders need to start from &#8220;0&#8221; and thus need to constantly be programmed with the relative position of a reference object, absolute encoders can pick up where they left off.<\/p>\n<p>Absolute encoders even provide information when there is a power outage. Absolute encoders can, therefore,\u00a0minimize damage\u00a0to an assembly line production and\u00a0increase productivity flow. Though there is a significant price gap between incremental and absolute encoders, absolute encoders are well worth the cost and can save you money if you need to halt and start production again.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Absolute_Encoder_Specifications\"><\/span>Absolute Encoder Specifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to find the right specifications for your absolute encoder.
