Incremental encoders generate information about position, angle, and rotation counts. The resolution is defined in the number of lines or pulses per rotation, which the encoder transmits to the control unit for each rotation. The current position can be determined by the control unit by counting these pulses. A reference run can be necessary when […]

General Information Sumtak is established in Shibuya, Tokyo in 1963. SUMTAK branched out into digital counter and cam switches opening a Tokyo office as a sales department due to the increased order of sensors and high-frequency encoders. In April 2000 Sumtak Encoders becomes a 100% subsidiary of HEIDENHAIN, Germany and in 2004 Sumtak acquired the […]
