A rotary encoder is a type of position sensor that converts the angular position (rotation) of a knob into an output signal that is used to determine what direction the knob is being rotated. Due to their robustness and fine digital control; they are used in many applications including robotic... view more

Working on a new project requiring (12) ballscrew actuators prompted R&D'ing cost effective solution.This led to many months of developing a 3D printed ball screw with an encoder and hardware cost of 25$/each. Multiple configurations posted for different travel lengths.
