It goes without saying that correct dimensional measurement is a key factor in manufacturing. Performing measurements with the same reference throughout all processes from material reception to processing, assembly, inspection, and shipping make it possible to create products that match the design exactly and to guarantee product quality. Thus, it is essential to perform correct measurements throughout every step of the manufacturing process. Correct measurements can be done by making sure that all those involved in manufacturing are skilled in measuring, and that the measuring instruments are correctly managed and used.

Technology has come a long way since the invention of the wheel in 3,500 B.C. Technological advancements have allowed humans to live and work more conveniently and more efficiently. With hundreds of thousands of technological breakthroughs throughout history, some of the most important everyday technologies have gotten lost in the shuffle and people have become unaware of their importance over time. Unbeknownst to most people, parts such as servo motors play a huge role in making people's lives easier every day. Small technological pieces such as servo motors are heavily used daily in devices you least expect.

Most of us are familiar with vibration; a vibrating object moves to and fro, back and forth. A vibrating object oscillates. We experience many examples of vibration in our daily lives. A pendulum set in motion vibrates. A plucked guitar string vibrates. Vehicles are driven on rough terrain vibrate, and geological activity can cause massive vibrations in the form of earthquakes. There are various ways we can tell that something is vibrating. We can touch a vibrating object and feel the vibration. We may also see the back-and-forth movement of a vibrating object. Sometimes vibration creates sounds that we can hear or heat that we can sense. In industrial plants, there is the kind of vibration we are concerned about: machine vibration. What is machine vibration? Machine vibration is simply the back and forth movement of machines or machine components. Any component that moves back and forth or oscillates is vibrating. Machine vibration can take various forms. A machine component may vibrate over large or small distances, quickly or slowly, and with or without perceptible sound or heat. Machine vibration can often be intentionally designed and so have a functional purpose At other times machine vibration can be unintended and lead to machine damage. Most times machine vibration is unintended and undesirable. Vibration monitoring allows the user to detect early signs of machine failure/deterioration. This allows the technician to replace or repair machinery before catastrophic system functional failure takes place.

A rotary encoder converts the angular position or motion of a shaft or axle to analog or digital output signals, so it is also called a shaft encoder. Absolute encoder and incremental encoder are the two main types. Rotary encoders are applied widely, including situations which require monitoring or control, and mechanical systems. So how to use a rotary encoder?
