These transducers are shaft encoders which give absolute measurements on more than one revolution of their shaft.
The encoders have a mechanic gear train which transmits the movement of its master disc to a series of slave discs for shaft revolution counting.
An electronic circuit cancels any mechanic backlash of the gear train, thus yielding a detection's.
They are mechanically strong and properly engineered in their electronics, optical and mechanic parts, being thus able to withstand heavy duty conditions.

Model 500 Series (Robust)
“Versatile” and “modular” are catchwords that differentiate the incremental and absolute encoders in the Model 500 Series of robust encoders. Used in many different types of industrial applications such as electric motors, cranes, elevators and general automation, the series’ mechanical, optical and electrical interfaces have become industry standard. If the standard selection of interfaces does not suit the application’s particular requirements, customised, cost-effective solutions may be provided with short lead times.

The wide diversity of knowledge and experience, built up over many years within the Wachendorff group of companies, has logically konsequent been used to integrate a new product series into the production program. This has resulted in an innovative range of absolute encoders for CANopen, “Made by Wachendorff in Germany”, that are based on the magnetic principle. They come in single or multiturn versions, with a clamping or synchro flange, or as blind hollow shaft encoders.
The WDGA series was first shown at the SPS/IPC/DRIVES 2008 exhibition in Nuremberg and met with a lot of interest.
The Wachendorff absolute encoders are designed in accordance with the communication profile CiA DS-301 and to the device profile for encoders CiA DS-406 V3.2 class C2. An LED is provided for status signalization as per DR303-3. The WDGA absolute encoders can be configured, without a bus cover, via LSS (layer setting services) to DS-308, or optionally via SDO (service data objects). They offer comprehensive CANopen functionality: position, speed and acceleration objects, limit switch and cam switch functions, up to four individually configurable Transmit-PDO (process data objects), Heartbeat and Nodeguarding as well as other comprehensive diagnostic possibilities, which take into account important aspects of safety.
As ever, the WDGA absolute encoders boast an industrially rugged construction, offer a high level of precision measurement and withstand high bearing loads.

Incremental encoders
Solid shaft encoders
Incremental encoders generate a certain number of pulses per revolution. The number of pulses is a measure of the distance moved (angular or linear).
Hollow shaft encoder
Hollow shaft encoders are always used when reduced installation length is required or when precision is important where the drive is subjected to high acceleration.
Absolute encoders
Singleturn
Absolute encoders provide a specific numerical value (code value) for each angular position.
Multiturn
Multiturn encoders not only detect angular positions but also distinguish between several revolutions.

Model 600 Series (Robust)
Field bus interfaces based on Ethernet, PROFIBUS or CAN are examples of the communication protocols often used in automation. These interfaces are available on the Model 600 Series absolute coded singleturn or multiturn encoders.

Serial point-to-point interfaces such as EnDat or the popular SSI are examples of other communication interfaces often used for position feedback from absolute coded encoders.

Absolute rotary encoders provide a distinctly coded numerical value for each shaft position. In positioning tasks in particular, the absolute encoders relieve the controller of computation tasks and keep costs down by eliminating the need for additional input components.
Moreover, reference runs when the machine is switched on or after power failures are no longer required as the current position value is available immediately. Parallel absolute encoders transmit the position value to the analyzing electronics through several parallel cables. Serial absolute encoders transmit their output data via standardized interfaces and protocols.
In the past, point-to-point connections were frequently set up for serial data transmission but today fieldbus systems are being used more often.
Interfaces:
The Pepperl+Fuchs rotary encoder portfolio includes the most varied range of current interfaces for absolute encoders to be found on the market:

By converting shaft rotation into electronic pulses, encoders are used to electronically monitor the position of a rotating shaft. The encoder’s output pulses are counted and evaluated by a control unit to determine machine position and velocity, which provides exceptional accuracy and flexibility when controlling motion. The high mechanical and electronic operating speeds associated with optical encoders increase system speeds and accuracy, decrease cycle times, and boost overall productivity in the manufacturing environment. Autonics rotary encoders of various sizes and types offer high-quality and precise measuring of the operating position and speed of the rotating shaft, etc. for more precise control of the objects.

Absolute encoders are devices used to measure lengths or angles and are used as distance gauges in machine tools, in handling and automation technology and on testing units.
Absolute encoders
These output positional information in the form of a numerical value (code). This numerical value is unique across the entire resolution range of the absolute encoder. For this reason no initial reference run is required, as is the case with incremental encoders.
With rotary encoders, a distinction is made between single-turn encoders, which provide a resolution on just a single rotation and then revert to 0, and multi-turn encoders that provide a resolution over several rotations. A further distinction is made between optical and magnetic encoders.
