Encoder Types and Configuration for Servo Drives
Encoders are position sensors that communicate the rotor's current angular position and speed to the servo drive. They are indispensable for field-oriented control (FOC), position and speed control, and functional safety. Different encoder types and communication protocols are used depending on the application.
EtherCAT for Servo Drives: A Practical Guide
EtherCAT (Ethernet for Control Automation Technology) is a real-time Ethernet fieldbus protocol developed by Beckhoff and established as an IEC standard (IEC 61158). Its core idea: Ethernet frames are not buffered and forwarded at each node as usual, but are processed on the fly. For servo drives, deterministic communication is not an option, but a prerequisite.
