Introduction
FANUC Pulsecoders are essential components in CNC (Computer Numerical Control) systems. They provide precision and accuracy by producing electrical pulses that denote the rotational position and speed of the motor shafts.
Overview of FANUC Pulsecoder
A FANUC Pulsecoder is a rotary encoder produced by FANUC, a leader in industrial robotics and CNC systems. The Pulsecoder translates mechanical motion into an electronic signal, allowing CNC systems to interpret the exact positioning and velocity of machine components.
The typical specifications for a FANUC Pulsecoder include:
- Resolution: Up to 32,768 pulses per revolution
- Accuracy: Up to ±0.0001 degrees
- Supply Voltage: Typically 5V DC
Working Principle of FANUC Pulsecoder
The FANUC Pulsecoder operates on the principle of optoelectronic encoding. It contains a disk with a pattern of transparent and opaque areas. As the disk rotates with the motor shaft, a light source shines through the disk, and a sensor detects the light passing through the transparent sections, generating pulses.
These pulses are then converted into a digital signal that is used by the CNC controller to calculate the precise position and speed of the motor shaft. The controller adjusts operations based on this feedback to ensure precise machining.
Advantages of Using FANUC Pulsecoders
Utilizing FANUC Pulsecoders in CNC systems presents several benefits:
- High Precision: With resolutions as high as 32,768 pulses per revolution, these pulsecoders offer exceptional precision.
- Reliability: Engineered for durability, they provide consistent performance in demanding industrial environments.
- Integration: Compatible with a wide range of FANUC CNC systems, enhancing system integration and performance.
