What I Wish Everyone Knew About Motion Control Sensors

Motion control sensors are also called rotary encoders or position sensors. They detect the movement of any nearby object and send an electrical signal to the detector that converts it into a readable signal for digital devices. Motion control sensors effectively and accurately detect the nearby object’s angular mechanical position. This enables the operator to find out the rotational mechanical displacements. Rotary encoders are also helpful in regulating and controlling outputs such as position, speed, volume control, and frequency.
