A reliable, autoclavable magnetic encoder for your position control needs
Portescap's autoclavable encoder provides accurate position feedback for demanding position or speed control applications such as robotic-assisted surgical tools or arthroscopic shavers. Output signals can be used for both control and commutation, making this product a one-step solution for all rotor sensing needs in a BLDC motor. Incremental sensing is output in A, B, Z format with the zero reference programmable. For serial communications, the absolute position can be read via a 4 wire SPI interface, with a maximum clock rate of 25MHz.
