- **Caution**: 

### Q: What is the difference between an encoder and a resolver in feedback devices?
**A**: Encoders use optical or magnetic sensors to provide digital position feedback, while resolvers use electromagnetic induction to deliver analog signals. Both provide position, speed, and direction data but differ in technology, accuracy, and environmental resistance.

### Q: How does this feedback device integrate with servo motor control systems?
**A**: The device connects directly to the servo motor shaft and interfaces with the control system via electrical connections. It continuously transmits real-time position, speed, and direction data, enabling precise closed-loop control for accurate motion in machinery applications.

### Q: What maintenance is required for industrial feedback devices?
**A**: Minimal maintenance is needed due to durable aluminum housing and stainless steel components. Regular inspection for debris accumulation, verification of electrical connections, and periodic calibration checks ensure optimal performance in machinery manufacturing environments.
