INTRODUCTION.  Zettlex IncOders are non-contact, absolute angle measuring devices.  They use a unique inductive technique and may be considered as an inductive encoder. 

IncOders are ideally suited to applications that need precise measurement in harsh environments - where electrical contacts, optical or capacitive encoders may prove unreliable or where traditional resolvers, synchros or Inductosyns are too bulky or expensive.

IncOders have 2 parts – a Stator and a Rotor.  Each is shaped like a flat ring.  The large bore makes it easy to accommodate through shafts, slip rings, optic fibres, pipes, cables etc.

The Stator is powered and the Rotor is passive.  The Stator contains all electronics necessary to receive power and generate the output signals.  The output signals from the Stator show the absolute position of the Rotor relative to the Stator right from power up.

There is no need for compliant couplings and the Rotor & Stator can simply be connected to the host product.  Precise mechanical mounting is not required and there are no bearings. Operation is unaffected by condensation or dust.  Robust, anodized aluminium alloy housings and monolithic constructions are used for both Rotor and Stator.

There are no contacting, delicate or wearing parts which means no need for periodic replacement, service or maintenance.

APPLICATIONS.  IncOders are used in a wide variety of applications including:-

  • Rotary joints & gimbals
  • Actuator servos & motor encoders
  • Electro-optic & infra-red camera systems
  • Heliostats & solar equipment
  • Robotic arms & CNC Machine tools
  • Test & calibration equipment
  • Light & heavy calibre weapons systems
  • Targeting systems & range finders
  • Antenna pointing devices & telescopes
  • Packaging & laboratory automation
  • Medical scanners & surgical equipment
  • Cranes & telescopic manipulators.

IncOders have a solid track record in safety related applications including airborne equipment and weapons systems.

IncOders are made in the United Kingdom, contain no ITAR restricted components and do not require an arms export licence unless they are >1000mm diameter.

STANDARD PRODUCT RANGE OPTIONS.  The standard IncOder range offers various options and accessories.  The options are specified using the IncOder part number when you order (see page 18) of the IncOder Product Guide.  Each IncOder contains one Stator and one Rotor.  The various options in the standard range include: -

  • Mechanical Format : Servo Clamp format or Screw Mount format.  It is possible to mix Servo format Rotor with Screw Mount format Stator and vice versa – see part numbering data on page 18 of IncOder Product Guide
  • Size of IncOder : stated as outer diameter: 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225 & 250mm.
  • Communication Interface : SSI or asynchronous serial data interface.  Optimal choice depends on the nature of the resident, host control system.  Both options cost the same.  For new applications we recommend asynchronous serial interface. 
  • Connector Orientation : axial or radial. 
  • Voltage : 5, 12 or 24VDC 

STANDARD PRODUCT RANGE ACCESSORIES.  Accessories may be purchased separately from the main IncOder:-

  • Cable : supplied with 2m long PVC sheathed and shielded cable with a plug connector (with 2 jack screws) to match IncOder’s socket connector on the Stator. 
  • Servo Clamp : supplied with M3 stainless steel screw and stainless clamp with internal nylon lock.

CUSTOM PRODUCTS.  Zettlex can customize IncOders to specific OEM requirements.  Options include alternative:-

  • size (up to 570mm outer diameter)
  • mechanical mounts and materials including stainless steel
  • voltage supplies
  • electrical outputs
  • measurement performance (up to 24 bit resolution)
  • connectors & cables
  • surface finish – clear anodized, chromate or black anodized
  • temperature range
  • low weight or low inertia
  • ATEX certified.

Simply consult Zettlex or your local representative for further information on custom products.

Typically, custom products are an economical option for OEMs in volumes of >50 units/year.
