Solid Shaft Rotary Encoder
A solid shaft incremental encoder is a type of rotary encoder used to convert mechanical motion into an electrical signal that can be interpreted by a controller or processor. The encoder provides feedback on the position, speed, and direction of rotation of the shaft to which it is attached.
The term "solid shaft" indicates that the encoder is designed to be directly mounted on a shaft without any hollow space in the centre.
The encoder is physically connected to the rotating shaft using Encoder Coupling, and its rotation corresponds directly to the shaft's rotation.
