Nemicon OSS-02-1C is a single-turn absolute encoder in the OSS series. Here is an introduction to it:
Model analysis: "OSS" is the series name; "02" may represent relevant parameters such as resolution, but the specific meaning needs to be referred to the product manual, perhaps 200P/R (pulse number/turn), which is only a guess; "1" may be the product version number or a specific logo; "C" usually indicates the output form, which may be a specific electrical interface form such as complementary output or long-line drive output. The exact meaning needs to be determined based on Nemicon's official information.
Working principle: Similar to common single-turn absolute encoders, photoelectric, magnetoelectric and other induction principles are usually used to detect the rotation position. Taking the photoelectric principle as an example, there is a code disk with a coding pattern inside. When the code disk rotates with the rotating shaft, the photoelectric sensor reads the code disk pattern and converts it into an electrical signal, which is then analyzed into a digital code by the signal processing circuit, thereby accurately determining the absolute position of the rotating shaft in a single turn. Absolute value encoding is used, and each position has a unique code corresponding to it. Even if the power is off or interfered, the current position can be accurately recorded without position loss or error.
Features:
High-precision position detection: It can provide accurate position information, suitable for scenarios with high requirements for position accuracy, and can ensure the accuracy of equipment motion control.
Strong reliability: Absolute value encoding is not affected by cumulative errors, has strong anti-interference ability, can work stably in complex industrial environments, and reduce measurement errors or errors caused by interference.
Power-off retention function: After the device is powered off and then powered on again, it can immediately provide accurate current position information without complex initialization or calibration operations, which helps to improve equipment operation efficiency and reliability and reduce maintenance costs.
