English to Spanish translations [PRO] Tech/Engineering / Electrnica | | English term or phrase: Incremental Optical Shaft Encoders | Es el título de un apartado de un texto. Las caracterísitcas que aparecen bajo el encabezamiento son:
• Work by chopping a light beam by means of equally spaced slots
cut on a metal disk. A photodetector detects when light passes
through and that signal is counted to determine angular position.
• Configuration of photodetector arrays is such
that when one groups “sees” light, the other
does not. Consequently two digital signals are
produced which are in quardrature which
allows the direction of rotation to be determined.
• Codewheels are 1-2in. in diameter with anywhere
from 500 to 2048 slots.
• Commercial units can measure rotations above 10,000 rpms. |

Explanation: A shaft encoder is a device that converts shaft rotations to pulses for accurate and precise measurements. This will be used to quantify the data coming from system A. The output of the shaft encoder will be pulses from which we can extract operating speed, operating time, motor operating status and operating direction information.
