Hey guys I have a spindle encoder I want to set up for my 10000rpm spindle on one of my cnc Mills
I can laser cut a encoder disc and get some gear sensors. Max dia of the disc due to size constraints is 150 mm dia Questions are mainly design ones. What width of slots do I need in encoder disc? And is bigger dia better for higher resolution? Also what resolution do I need for good reliable rigid tapping? I could probably laser cut a disc 140mm dia with 400 slots 1mm wide each if that would let the sensors work OK. But I don't really know what the sensors can pick up. Anyway if you guys have already done this I would appreciate the advice.
