The function of the encoder in the automation system is like a pair of "eyes" in the control system. It keeps an eye on the position and speed of the motor or mechanical arm and feeds back the data to the controller (such as PLC and numerical control system) in real time. The controller adjusts the command according to the data to ensure the accurate operation of the equipment.
