Rotary Encoder shopping list
Rotary encoder, disc, body & detectors. This part, cos it holds a couple of bearing sleeves CAREFULLY file the black plastic until you expose the side of the bearing sleeves. Break the plastic away taking care not to apply any force to the sleeves.
Here are the sleeves, plus a 6mm rod that is also required Also, two threaded inserts from the front piece (some violence is required) Finally, if you can find them, two circlips (sometimes called E clips) from the previously mentioned 6mm shaft. No photo, sorry.
