MasTec has the biggest selection of Encoders in the Southern Hemisphere
An encoder is a sensor of mechanical motion that generates digital signals in response to motion. As an electro-mechanical device.
Encoder is able to provide motion control system users with information concerning position, velocity and direction, speed, rate, and distance.
MasTec supplies all types and ranges of Encoders:
Incremental Encoders - shaft and hollow shaft
Absolute Encoders - shaft and hollow shaft
Linear Encoders - Tape
Linear Encoders - Cable

SLIP RINGS
Senring M series Mini slip ring is specially designed for data and video signals transmission of small and medium-sized equipment, like speed dome camera, children intelligent toys, stage lights and drones.
Pancake slip rings are mainly applied to transmit precise signal together with power, also could be combined with fluid media transmitting(such as hydraulic or pneumatic.
MasTec Power Front Page July 2018 ASlip Ring is an electromechanical device that allows the transmission of power and electrical signals from a stationary to a rotating structure. A slip ring can be used in any electromechanical system that requires rotation while transmitting power or signals. MasTec is the distributor for SENRING. We supply: Through Hole Slip Rings
Capsule(Tiny) Slip Rings
Mercury Slip Rings
Wind Turbine Slip Ring
Customized Slip Rings
Fiber Optic Slip Rings(FORJ)

Mastec Projects, Books and Training Mastec Projects, Books and Training MasTec Projects
Over the last year MasTec has completed 6 major projects in sites through out NZ. Several hundred hours of programming work has been completed, as well as many hundreds of hours of commissioning, site management, and installation.
All these projects involved LabVIEW at the core. However, many of these projects also include PACs, PLCs, Process Controllers, with peripherals like Servos, Actuators, VSDs, Water measurement and control, Hydraulic Control and other real world systems.
MasTec has several large projects on its books, spread out over about 3-4 years. There are gaps in this schedule.Many sites still run XP and Win 7 for their LABs and Production areas. MasTec is still undertaking new projects in legacy LV 6.1 /7.1/8.2 and 8.6 systems.
Major new projects are still undetaken in LabVIEW 7.1 that run in Windows 7 32 Bit OS, very successfully. LabVIEW 7.1 is still (in our opinion) the best LabVIEW ever released. Fast, efficient and stable. Win 7 32 bit OS will be available for some time. Most large corporations are still running Win 7 due to its excellent stability and IT staffs familiarity and history.
However, other projects using from LabVIEW 2010 up to the present version of 2015 SP1, which is good, but very processor hungry and much slower to develop in. We only recommend I7s CPUs with this software with SSDs for the OS and LV.

Five PDF Books
How to program more effectively in LabVIEWThe 5 books introduce a thorough development of LCOP - LabVIEW Component Object Programming methods.
Book 1 "Hidden Data",
that is, cleaning up LV Program's by Removing Constants from Diagrams and putting them in Configuration Files for Loading at runtime.
This method does not use ini files but a far more robust LabVIEW centric method, not seen in other literature. It also cleans up Diagrams and Self Documents.
A Level on step lower than this LCOP method is to make Diagram Constants a Type Def Cluster Constant set that is placed in a TAB on the front panel and the values of the constants are set as defaults from the Run menu.
This is a simpler version recommended for beginners to middle level programmers.
Book 2 "Abstraction",
that is, removing complexity in the top layer of a LabVIEW diagram by building Abstracted Message Driven LV Components.
This shows how to build Message driven (Test Verbs) Abstracted named (noun) State Engine Components that are safe & robust. It also leads to better cohension of course and no/low coupling.
Book 3 "Real Time Cluster Constants Editor"
that is, Removed Diagram Constants that are loaded at Run Time from a config file, can now be edited, in situ, inside the Program /or its Component while it runs, allowing tuning of programs in Real Time.
Changes made to the Constants by the editor can also be saved back into their original configuration files at run time. This addition of the Real Time Editor removes the need to exit a component or program to edit constants.
Book 4 "Low Frequency Real Time Control",
is about how to use USB DAQ, DIO and DAC to control an Hydraulic RAM for Testing a UUT.
It is a close look at how to use State Engine for Control.
Simple but useful for anyone wanting to do closed loop control.
It embodies many of the LCOP methods discussed in the other three books.Book 5 "An Off Line Constant Cluster and Calibration Editor"
For Editing, Loading and Saving Cluster Constants" and also built in into the editor "Adjust Calibration and System Data" off Line for easing commissioning. Plus more helpful bits.
This includes a section on setting up all Paths for an application as a large Cluster Constant, again easing commissioning, Typically a large Application will have in excess of 30 Paths to manage.
MasTec Training
"LabVIEW for Everyone"
MasTec recently under took a 4 day Training course for 15 Academics, (Professors and Grad Students), at one of Oceania's largest universities.
The focus was on getting students to the point where they can undetake projects by the end of the course. A big ask. However, the focus was not on how to use all the bits inside LabVIEW to make software but the development of strategies to allow projects to be undertaken.
The MasTec Instructor has trained all over the globe and has taught over 2000 students.
He will also come to your site and do training with your LabVIEW team, using traditional or these new LabVIEW methods MasTec has developed.

Portable LabVIEW on Tablets
Some important information for those wanting to do Portable LabVIEW applications.
Did you know that LabVIEW 6.1 runs very well on older ATOM WIndows XP Tablets.
Also did you know LabVIEW 7.1 runs very well on ATOM Windows 7 Tablets.
Do not use LV 8 and above on ATOM CPUs, it just is too slow.
If you need a Windows 7 tablet buy any new one and rip out the Windows 10 and put on Win 7 Embedded or even Win7 32 bit and you are away.
These tablets can have a relativelylow spec ATOM Intel Chip and run just fine.
This includes doing DAQ with USB or Serial.
So do not believe the blogs that say you can't do this, they are talking about newer LabVIEWs that are huge bulky pieces of software and full of stuff you never will use for small portable apps.
I haven't tried it but I am guessing even Windows Phones will run it fine under Win 7 or 8 OS
