mount to a machined C-face
or flange adapter on the motor (drive or non-drive end). Modular
encoders
consist of a rotor that mounts on the shaft, and a stator that bolts to the
motor frame. Modular encoders are very rugged,
and Avtron encoders feature Wide-Gap sensors to avoid complex
shimming or
fitting to the motor. Modular C-face encoders are typically used on DC
motors; but some AC motors, such as Rockwell’s RPM III AC and Marathon’s Blue
and Black Max motors, have C-faces standard on the non-drive end for mounting
an encoder.
