Positioning and speed measurement

An absolute encoder supplies the value for controlling the positioning speed, acceleration, and delay. With its high resolution and repeatability, the encoder ensures that the positioning commands for the automated storage and retrieval system are executed with precision. In addition, the “electronic cams” function can be used to define, monitor, and move to specific position ranges.
