Encoders
Until recently, dreams of robots that will do tedious and hard homework for us only recently appeared in films. The current technology, however, has overtaken the cinema and more and more film productions have become a replication of the present reality that surrounds every of us. Modern sci-fi devices now can be increasingly found just in our homes, not scientific labs.

Encoders – huge possibilities in a small package
These small devices hide enormous possibilities in their housing. They are responsible for converting the rotational motion into an electrical signal that allows you to determine the exact angular position, offset and number of revolutions. Thanks to this, they allow, among others: find answers to the question about the precise angular position of a moving element, its direction, distance or rotation speed - sounds familiar? Just remember how a milling machine, a saw, or even a cleaning robot works!
Encoders – rotary encoder, magnetic encoder and other types
To fully meet your needs, we want to present the highest quality products, prepared with special care and offering enormous possibilities! We provide our clients with, among others: such encoders as:
- intended for specific robots,
- Arduino and Raspberry encoders - products aimed at Arduino and Raspberry users,
- models with buttons and regulators,
- optical,
- magnetic encoders,
- impulse.
We also offer a wide selection of rotary encoders. Devices of this type are also available in the form of absolute encoders. Additionally, you can find linear encoders, incremental encoders and miniature encoders on the market. Absolute encoders are digital devices that provide information not only about the angle, but also the number of revolutions (rotational speed). In turn, an incremental encoder distinguishes at least one output signal. In the case of incremental encoders, the specificity of the output signal must be always adjusted to the design requirements. The encoder is often used as a counter. impulses.
Of course, that's not all! However, we encourage each user to familiarize themselves with the BOTLAND offer, which will certainly guarantee satisfaction to all automation and robotics enthusiasts! How to choose the right encoder? First of all, its parameters should be adjusted to a specific application. These include: encoder resolution, code signal and line driver.

Encoders - FAQ
Encoders are rotational-pulse converters. They generate impulses under the influence of shaft rotation. They convert motion into an electrical signal, so it can be used to determine angular displacements, rotational speed or linear displacement. They are divided into incremental and absolute.
The most important parameters of encoders useful in electronics and robotics are resolution, i.e. the number of pulses per revolution, housing size, shaft or hole diameter, mounting method, supply voltage, output signal and its output method.
