Affordable type 11 mechanical rotary encoder

A new product has been launched in the affordable mechanical encoder category. The RIC11 series, which is about 12mm square (Type 11) and comes with a push switch, offers options for through-hole and SMT. It allows for the selection of shaft lengths ranging from 10mm to 19.5mm (8 stages) and their shapes (D-cut/knurled). Additionally, there are two types of resolution available: 20 PPR/20 clicks and 15 PPR/30 clicks, making it suitable for a wide range of design requirements.

2-way type, with an optional push switch, panel mountable, metal shaft potentiometer.

A new model of the CUI potentiometer with a size of 16.5mm and a metal shaft has been released. It comes with washers and nuts for panel mounting, and options for a dual type and a type with a push switch are also available. There are many options for shaft shapes and types of connection terminals, allowing us to meet a variety of requests.

AMT series of robust and high-precision rotary encoders with unique capacitive technology.

Since the release of the first generation in 2006 by CUI Devices, the AMT series has built an excellent track record with high reliability and accuracy. It is more robust than optical encoders, resistant to various harsh conditions such as dust, dirt, and oil, and has far superior resistance to vibration and extreme temperatures. Additionally, it does not use LEDs, resulting in a longer lifespan, smaller size, and lower current consumption (6-18mA). It is robust like magnetic encoders, unaffected by magnetic interference or EMC noise, while achieving higher precision and resolution. Moreover, due to its digital nature, users can flexibly change the encoder's resolution. In capacitive encoders, the resolution can be set programmatically, which not only helps optimize the system when designing PID control loops but also allows one model to be used across multiple applications, reducing inventory holding. For BLDC motors, it enables the digital setting of index pulses and alignment, and the diagnostic features included in CUI's GUI software allow users to quickly troubleshoot on-site.

Capacitive, hollow shaft rotary encoder. Resolution setting changes can be made using DIP switches.

CUI's AMT encoders are a lineup of robust and high-precision capacitive hollow shaft encoders designed for installation on motor shafts. Among them, a new incremental encoder that allows resolution settings via DIP switches has been introduced, making it the first type compatible with shafts ranging from φ9mm to 5/8 inch in diameter.

Are you making progress on measures for the "2024 Problem"? With stricter management of drivers' working hours, reducing "waiting time" has become an urgent issue in the logistics field. To address this challenge, our company, Hotron, proposes the "Vehicle Detection Ultrasonic Sensor 'HM-UX2'," which instantly grasps the availability of loading bays. The 'HM-UX2' contributes to the resolution of waiting times by accurately understanding the availability situation, reducing unnecessary waiting and queueing, and shortening waiting times to alleviate the burden on drivers! By replacing the "eyes" of your loading bay management with this high-precision sensor, why not start addressing the "2024 Problem"? Take a look at the product features: "Can it accurately detect availability?" "Can we really use it in our company?" "I just want to know the cost, even if it's an estimate." If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to consult with us.
