What does encoder CPR mean


CPR is short for "Counts per Revolution", meaning the number of counts per turn, which describes the resolution of the encoder. For example, "2000CPR" means that the output signal of the encoder produces 2000 counting pulses for each revolution.

In industrial automation and machine control, the resolution of encoder is an important parameter, which directly affects the measurement accuracy of position and speed. The higher the CPR, the higher the resolution of the encoder and the higher the accuracy of the position and speed measurements. Therefore, it is usually necessary to select the appropriate encoder resolution according to the specific application requirements.

It is important to note that the resolution of the encoder is affected not only by CPR, but also by factors such as the type of encoder, the type of output signal and how it works. Therefore, when selecting an encoder, it is necessary to take comprehensive consideration based on specific application scenarios and requirements.
