Certainly that looks like a possibility but, I think that the state of
the art approach would be a Kalman filter, that can be used to get the
best from both sensors and give back a more precise feedback. In
addition to this, if a decent model of the machine is available, kalman
filter would use it additionally to get an even improved feedback
(including velocity and acceleration if needed).

 Thanks,

  Has anyone done something like this ?

[Emc-users] Encoders x 2

2011-02-16 Thread Marshland Engineering
I'm not sure if this can be done but I do have it on my existing mill.

It has servo drives with encoders but it also has encoders on the table. This 
obviously gets rid of backlash. (I have to say it is very accurate mill)

Has anyone done something like this ?

Thanks Wallace
