Cable pull or draw wire encoders continue to shrink in size and now one company, Kübler, has unveiled what it claims is the thinnest cable encoder on the market. A draw-wire encoder is essentially a ...

The MR121 encoder cable promises to resolve ground loop and interference problems in motion control systems, while extending the distance between the encoder and controller.Functioning like a ...

IC-Haus introduced the iC-HD2, iC-HD7 and iC-HE line drivers for 5 V and 24 V industrial encoder/sensor applications. The output drivers are designed for cable impedances in the range of 30 to 140 ...

This paper proposes a calibration algorithm for a three degrees-of-freedom (DOF) planar cable-driven parallel robot. The developed calibration algorithm uses a low-cost laser distance sensor to ...

With the aim of designing robust and reliable robot systems, this paper proposes and evaluates a complementary approach to localize a mobile robot, which is based on sensor data fusion of an inertial ...
