professionalism the three cornerstones in encoder
design: optical design, electronic design and
mechanical design that result in a state-of-the-art
product.

Optical design
Projected In the vangard of measurement technologies, Fagor Automation
LED Analyzer Linear light Photodiodes
encoder uses transmission and reflective optics in its range of encoders.

With new scanning techniques, such as the new single-window scanning

technology, more immune to contamination, which is critical for operations

in extreme conditions, and contributes to attaining high quality signals

that minimize interpolation errors, resulting in improved accuracy of the

measurement system.

Electronic design

components in their design. Thanks to that, it achieves the optimization of

the signals at high turning speeds, achieving high accuracy and angular

resolution.

Mechanical design
Fagor Automation designs and manufactures the most innovative and

reliable measuring systems using its advanced mechanical designs. These

advanced designs minimize fluid accumulation while facilitating drainage

and provide greater resistance to fluids and better sealing with double-

flanged o-rings with the VITON® material in their composition. In addition,

aid components, such as the markings indicating the positive and

negative counting directions, facilitate installation. These designs, together

Air intake
with the materials used – titanium and stainless steel – provide the
Sealing o-ring
products with the necessary robustness to ensure the best performance

in different applications.

Enclosed design
The enclosed design protects the graduated glass disc.

The O-rings protect the encoder from powder and liquid splashes as

the optical elements move along the encoder. The reader head and the

graduated disc make up a balanced tandem accurately capturing and

transmitting the position and movement of the machine. The optical

elements move with low friction. The air intake option increases the

Graduated disc Encoder body in stainless steel

degree of protection against powder and fluids.
Quality

Accuracy
certificate
Every single Fagor encoder is subjected to an

extensive final accuracy check. This control is

carried out on a computerized measuring bench

equipped with a laser interferometer located inside

a climate controlled chamber at 20°C. The resulting

final accuracy graph is supplied with every Fagor

encoder.

The quality of the measurement is

mainly determined by:
• Etching quality

• The quality of the scanning process

• The quality of the electronics that processes the

signals

Technology
The absolute measurement system is a
direct digital measure of machine position.
It is fast, accurate and does not require absolute graduation incremental graduation
homing of the machine. The position value
is available from the moment the machine
is turned on and may be requested by the
connected device (CNC) at any time.
The absolute encoders provide direct measure of machine
position without using any intermediate device. The errors
originated in the mechanics of the machine are avoided
because the encoder is mounted on the machine axis and
sends the real movement data to the controller; some of
the potential sources of error, such as those caused by the
thermal behavior of the machine, may be minimized using
encoders.

Angular and rotary

encoders
Angular encoders are used as angular movement sensors on
machines that require high resolution and high accuracy.
Fagor angular encoders reach 29-bit angular resolution
equivalent to 536 870 912 positions and accuracy levels of
± 5”, ± 2.5”, ± 2” and ± 1” depending on the model. In them,
the graduated disk of the measuring system is attached
directly to the shaft. They have bearings and couplings that
serve as guide and adjustment.

Couplings, besides minimizing the static and dynamic

Graduated glass disk deviations, compensate for axial movements of the shaft
providing easier mounting, smaller size and the possibility of
receiving photo-diodes reticule plano-convex lens incremental LED
hollow shafts.
Fagor Automation uses the graduated glass measuring
absolute sensor method in its absolute angular and rotary encoders The
absolute
LED light from the LED goes through an engraved glass and a
reticule before reaching the receiving photo diodes. The
measurement is made based on the pitch determined by the
number of pulses/turn.
This measuring method have two different etchings:
incremental
graduation • Incremental graduation: Used to generate incremental
signals that are counted inside the reader head. The
absolute
graduation
incremental graduation also provides the 1 Vpp analog
signals except in systems that only use digital signals.
• Absolute graduation: It is a binary code with a special
sequence that avoids repetition. On Fagor absolute
encoders, the absolute position is calculated using the
graduated glass disk
data of that code read by means of a high precision optical
sensor.

Graduated glass disk Reference signals (I0)

Receiving photo-diodes Grid
It is a reference signal etched on a graduation and when
scanned by the measuring system generates a pulse.
Plano-convex lens Reference marks are used to validate and restore the
machine zero position specially after turning on the machine
LED power.
Fagor Automation encoders have three types of reference
marks I0:
• Incremental: The reference signal obtained is
synchronized with the feedback signals to ensure perfect
measuring repeatability.
• Distance-coded: Both on linear and angular encoders
each distance coded reference signal is graduated in a non
linear way based on the predefined mathematical function.

mechanical fault exclusion

Shaft coupling with nut and mechanical fault exclusion washer For the H2-D90, H2-D200 and H2-D200i100 angular
encoders, a mechanical connection between the measuring
system and the drive can be made, which excludes failures
Mechanical fault exclusion
washer Nut due to the possibility of loosening and undoing of the
connection. To make a mechanical fault exclusion connection,
it is essential that the assembly be made by either using an
additional washer (mechanical fault exclusion washer) or
alternatively with additional elastic pins.

It must also be taken into account that there are limitations with the
following aspects:
• 
The materials used: it is essential that the shaft of the machine
and the fastening components are made of steel
• The maximum turning speed
• The operating temperature

Couplings for solid-shaft encoders

In order to ensure the accuracy of the solid-shaft angular

encoder, it is a must to use couplings that provide them
with long lasting stability. Fagor Automation recommends
using our AA and AP couplings that have been designed for
our encoders and provide a guarantee that other couplings
cannot.

Protection
Enclosed linear encoders meet the protection requirements If the encoder is exposed to concentrated liquids and vapor,
IP 64 of the IEC 60 529 standard when mounted so water compressed air may be used to achieve a protection degree
splashes don’t hit the sealing lips directly. For further of >IP 64 and prevent any contamination from getting inside.
protection, a separate protection guard must be mounted. For these cases, Fagor Automation recommends their
Air filter units AI-400 and AI-500.
• AI-400 filter
The air coming from an compressed air supply must be
treated and filtered in the AI-400 unit which consists of:
• Filtering and pressure regulating group.
• Fast inlets and joints for 4 measuring systems.
• A plastic tube 25 m long with an inside diameter of 4 mm
and outside diameter of 6 mm.

• AI-500 filter
Under extreme conditions where the air must be dried, Fagor
Automation recommends using their air filter AI-500. This
includes a drying module that makes it possible to reach the
conditions required by Fagor Automation feedback systems.
