Linear encoders: Used for measuring straight-line motion, linear encoders work on a similar principle to rotary incremental or absolute encoders, but detect linear displacement, making them requisite ...

On a linear encoder, this signal can be found at very precise distances. When homing is performed using a marker pulse, the axis is moved until a switch near the end of travel or stall point is found.
