Lebanon, N.H. March 15, 2004. A major diesel
engine manufacturer is using a split ring magnetic encoder that mounts
directly on the cam shaft and operates in hot engine oil. The
magnetic encoder produces feedback data that permits the engine
manufacturer to measure the torsional twist of the cam shaft, improve
cam control and lower pollution levels.
According to the resolver
manufacturer, Admotec Inc., Lebanon, N.H. (www.admotec.com) split ring
magnetic encoders are custom designed for specific applications and are
based on their standard K and EK Series magnetic encoders.
They are available for shaft sizes from 1/2" to 10”, and
operate at speeds up to 4000 rpm with resolution up to 4500 cpr in oil,
dust, and excessive moisture.
Although initially designed for
automotive use, the split ring magnetic encoders provide a unique
solution for limited access or captive shaft applications in all
industries.
