Good day, I've got a pick & place machine equipped with DC servo motors and 20 um glass scales for position feedback.
The scales have index marks at approx. 15 cm intervals. The index marks are used to compensate for any counting errors since the previous index positions. If, say, only 7300 ticks were counted by the encoder when the next index mark is reached, the controller should compensate by adding the difference (7500-7300) to the raw position count when moving in the positive direction or subtract the difference when moving in the negative direction. Does Machinekit support linuear quadrature encoders with multiple index marks?
