Encoder for 24V DC Motor and Roboclaw 2*30A Motor Driver

Hi all,

We have a wheelchair including 2 brushed DC motor (24V). We are using Roboclaw 2*30A Dc motor controller. But wheels are not synchronic. So, we should use encoder to get revolutions per minute data. Which encoder is available for these data? I guess, our motor rpm is about 450 rpm.
Thanks in advance.

Hello.

It sounds like you are looking for encoders to use with your system. The encoders we that currently carry (other than those already attached to a motor) are our Encoders for Micro Metal Gearmotors, which are unlikely to work with your wheelchair motors. You might be able to add your own sensors to make some kind of encoder system if you cannot find some ready made ones that will work with your motors directly.
