CUI Inc has added three low cost, high performance optical encoders to their broad encoder product offering. The AME, BME, and LME are modular incremental encoders that offer a wide range of resolution and bore options, and can provide voltage or line driver output. Each encoder contains a LED source, an integrated circuit with detectors and circuitry, and an optical disc which rotates between the emitter and detector IC. These encoders can be quickly and easily mounted to a dc motor or used in other feedback required applications.
The AME series has 2 channels with available resolutions of 100, 200, 256, 360, 400, 500, 1000 and 1024 ppr and bore diameters of 3, 4, 5, 6, 6.35, and 8 mm. This series starts at under $30.00 for 1 piece. The BME series has 3 channels which includes an index pulse with available resolutions of 100, 200, 256, 360, 400, 500, 1000, and 1024 ppr (1000 and 1024 ppr only have 2 channels and no index), and bore diameters of 3, 4, 5, 6, 6.35, and 8 mm. An optional wide base with 1.81” BC is available as well. This series starts at under $41.00 for 1 piece. The LME series has 3 channels with available resolutions of 1000, 1024, 2000, and 2048 ppr, and bore diameters of 6, 6.35, 8, 10, 14, 19, and 20 mm. Pricing for 1 piece starts at under $43.00 for 1000 or 1024 ppr or under $50.00 for 2000 or 2048 ppr. All orders come with a complementary centering tool.
