This eliminates the need for homing &#8211; a decisive advantage for applications where time, space and reliability count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Maximum integration &#8211; minimum complexity<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The QAE is fully compatible with all dPro and dMove Co drives from Dunkermotoren. In combination with a dPro motor, the system achieves a singleturn resolution of 4096 cpr. Even the smallest deviations after a power failure are automatically corrected &#8211; ideal for self-locking applications such as gearboxes with holding brakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your advantages at a glance:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>No reference run necessary &#8211; ready for use immediately after switching on<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cost-efficient &#8211; absolute encoder functionality without a high price tag<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Space-saving &#8211; no additional components required<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Recommended for self-locking applications &#8211; e.g. with brake or self-locking gear<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Quasi Absolute Encoder, Dunkermotoren is setting new standards in terms of&nbsp;<br>efficiency, integration and reliability &#8211; for smart drive solutions without compromise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dunkermotoren.com\/\">dunkermotoren.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dunkermotoren GmbH, based in Bonndorf in the Black Forest, is a leading global manufacturer of intelligent, integrated drive solutions.
