PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
YASKAWA ELECTRIC PG-B2/H - Rotary Incremental Encoder
This YASKAWA ELECTRIC PG-B2/H is a high-resolution rotary incremental encoder engineered for precise position and speed feedback in industrial motion control systems. It provides 17-bit resolution, generating differential line driver signals for robust noise immunity and reliable data transmission. This component is integral to closed-loop control architectures, commonly deployed with Yaskawa AC servo motors in applications requiring accurate synchronization and positioning, such as robotics, CNC machine tools, and automated assembly lines.
