Banner absolute encoder helps AGV logistics handling system

AGVs have shown their talents in modern manufacturing, efficiently, accurately, and flexibly complete material handling tasks. Multiple AGVs can form a flexible logistics handling system. The handling route can be adjusted in time with the adjustment of the production process, so that one production line can be Manufacture a variety of products, greatly improving the flexibility of production and the competitiveness of enterprises.

The AGV motion control system needs to obtain accurate and real-time information feedback about the AGV equipment, such as AGV position, rudder angle, AGV speed and other information to complete the automatic control operation of the mechanical equipment. The provision of this information is generally completed by the encoder. The encoder uses the photoelectric effect or magnetic effect principle to convert physical information such as position, angle, and speed into electrical signals, which are passed to the AGV control system. Due to its high conversion accuracy, real-time response, and simple installation and connection, the encoder is selected as a connected machine. Ideal for components and AGV electronic control systems. Different AGV manufacturers use different encoders. Most manufacturers use absolute encoders, and a few manufacturers use incremental encoders.

American Banner has a high-quality, rich variety of incremental encoders and absolute encoder product lines, and has become the preferred supplier of many AGV manufacturers.
