IncOder® CORE is a range of robust miniature inductive ring encoders designed for robotic joints.
IncOder CORE is a non-contact, lightweight absolute rotary inductive encoder product series fully contained in a printed circuit board kit. The frameless hollow bore design is suited for integration into rotary actuators. The position sensor utilizes a unique field-proven inductive technique, delivering highly repeatable, reliable, temperature-stable measurement performance.
The angle sensor comes in two sizes, 44mm and 70mm, and can be installed simply by mounting the rotor and stator pair into the host assembly by means of M2 mounting holes. With modest installation tolerances, a programmable zero set and no calibration required, the sensor can be screwed (and optionally doweled) in place for quick, practical, and reliable setup.
Each sensor includes a passive rotor target, paired with an active stator. The stator contains all the required processing electronics in a lightweight, stacked circuit board package.
IncOder CORE can be configured to output up to 17-bits (44mm) or 20-bits (70mm) of absolute position data in a range of protocol options including SPI, BiSS-C, and SSI. The 70mm IncOder CORE has been specifically sized to complement the Omni+ 60 and Omni+ 70 BLDC motor designs.
