Multi-turn absolute encoder. The encoder manufacturer uses the principle of clock gear mechanism. When the center code wheel rotates, another set of code discs (or multiple sets of gears, multiple sets of code discs) are driven by gears, and the number of turns is added to the single-turn encoding. Encoding, in order to expand the measuring range of the encoder, such an absolute encoder is called a multi-turn absolute encoder, it is also determined by the mechanical position code, each position code is unique and does not repeat, without the need to remember.
