OPTICAL ENCODER
Optical Encoder: Optical Encoder is a electro-mechanical device  and is a digital position measuring device.
Principle: Its work on a principle of looking at  pattern of alternating black and white segments.
Construction: Light source Light sensor Rotating Disk Shaft
Working:
Types: Regular Encoder Quadrature Encoder
Regular Encoder: It count number of transition but  cannot tell the direction.
Quadrature Encoder: It uses two staggered pattern and tell which way the thing is turning.
Sensors used by Optical Encoder. Reflective Sensor  Break Beam Sensor
Break Beam Sensor: More accurate but require precise mechanical allignment
Reflective Sensor Consist of LED and Photosensor
Models:
 
 
 
Specification: Temperature  0 to 60 degree Speed 600 RPM Weight 400 gms
Applications: N.C Machines Digital liquid level Neutron and X-Ray spectrometer
ROTARY ENCODER
Rotary Encoder: *  Electromechanical Device *  Convert position in to digital  or analog code.
Types of Encoder: Absolute Incremental (relative)
Absolute Encoder: To determine angular position Incremental Encoder: To determine change in angular position
Incremental Rotary Encoder
Consist two pulses Second pulse used to determine the direction of rotation of encoder wheel First pulse gave information of incremental and direction of rotation information
 
 
Segments: 100 to 6000 3.6 degree of resolution for 100 segment 0.06 degree of resolution for 6000 segment Segement: Opaque and Transparent
 
ABSOLUTE ENCODER
* Concentric Circles * Opaque and  Transparent segment 512 segments in outermost ring of  whose has 10 rings
Difference between  Incremental and Absolute
Models
 
 
 
Applications: Robotics Photographic lenses Computer Input device e.g TrackBalls Radar plateform
