About QM35 EZ-Comm Optical Rotary Encoder

The Quantum Devices EZ-Comm system is the fastest and most economical way to align an optical encoder’s commutation channels to a motor. EZ-Comm was designed as a programmable encoder to reduce assembly cost for high volume manufacturing. By eliminating multiple steps from the typical timing of an encoder and motor, EZ-Comm saves manufacturing time and reduces assembly cost. EZ-Comm is integrated into the high performance, low profile modular design of the QM35. QM35 EZ-Comm is ideal for high volume OEM applications and priced competitively for all sizes of motion control projects. As simple as a push of a button, QM35 EZ-Comm is the newest and simplest way to commutate  your BLDC motors.
