Incremental Encoder Vs Absolute Encoder: Understanding the Key Differences between the Two from a Manufacturer’s Perspective

Gertech (Weihai) Automation Technology Co. Ltd is a reliable manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of high-quality encoders. Our encoders are designed to deliver precision, accuracy, and durability, making them ideal for various industries, including robotics, automation, and manufacturing.

When it comes to rotary encoders, we offer two main types; incremental encoders and absolute encoders. The choice of encoder depends on the application requirements. Incremental encoders generate electric signals that define movement relative to a starting point, while absolute encoders generate position information that does not change even after a power failure or reset.

Our incremental encoders provide cost-effective, high-resolution position feedback with low torque and include various interface options, such as parallel, serial, and USB. Our absolute encoders offer high precision, resolution, and reliability, and are available in various single or multi-turn options, with a range of communication interfaces.

As an OEM encoder supplier, we can cater to your unique requirements and deliver custom solutions. Contact us today for more information about our products and services!

Featured Products

  • Introducing our latest product range featuring both incremental encoders and absolute encoders. Our encoders are designed to meet the growing demand for precision, reliability and ease of use in various industrial applications. An incremental encoder generates a pulse signal output proportional to the rotary or linear displacement of a shaft or slide. It is widely used in manufacturing, robotics, and aerospace industries. Our incremental encoders offer superior resolution, high frequency response, and low electrical noise. On the other hand, an absolute encoder provides a unique output code for every position of the shaft or slide. It is commonly used in equipment that requires accurate, high-resolution positioning, such as machine tools, printing presses, and food packaging machines. Our absolute encoders feature the latest sensing technology, high-speed performance, and excellent resistance to shock and vibration. Whether you need a solution for precise motion control, speed regulation, or position feedback, we have the encoder that meets your requirements. Our products are manufactured to the highest quality standards, so you can trust them to deliver consistent performance over long periods of operation. Visit our website today to learn more about our incremental and absolute encoders and find the perfect solution for your application.
