Customer Challenge:

An automation equipment manufacturer faced two major challenges in the design process of a robotic arm: firstly, the space at the joints of the robotic arm was extremely limited, The second is to ensure that the robotic arm can accurately perform various complex actions. Any slight positional deviation can lead to assembly errors in the product, which in turn can affect product quality and production efficiency.

Hengxiang’s solution

After a thorough understanding of customer needs, Hengxiang recommended its ultra-thin absolute value MPN55 encoder. This encoder has many unique advantages and can perfectly meet the demanding requirements of customers in robotic arm applications.

1. The MPN55 encoder has a thickness of 15mm and a maximum shaft aperture of ϕ 24mm, achieving true ultra-thin miniaturization.

2. The encoder adopts a non-contact photoelectric reflection principle, with a high precision of ± 80 ", a maximum resolution of 24Bits, and can be extended up to 32Bits. During the operation of the robotic arm, it is possible to capture real-time and accurate changes in joint position, and provide precise position information feedback to the control system.

3. Multi circle data recording function, suitable for complex movements

The MPN55 encoder supports multi turn data recording without power loss, enabling the robot arm to continuously and accurately record the number of joint rotations and position information during complex movements of multiple turns over long periods of time, greatly improving the stability and reliability of the robot arm's operation.

Application effectiveness:

After applying the MPN55 encoder to a new collaborative robotic arm, the customer achieved significant results. During precision assembly tasks, the assembly accuracy of the product has increased from 85% to over 98%, effectively reducing the defect rate and lowering production costs.
