This demonstration shows the outstanding tolerances of the Kappasense encoder in comparison to best in class Optical & Magnetic Encoders.
All 3 readers are mechanically connected together keeping the same Airgap as they move, which increases from 0.1mm up to 3mm.
The results speak for themselves: while the KappaSense encoder maintains accurate positioning even at 3mm , the competitors’ encoders lose position already at the halfway point.
