Abstract
An encoder module with an alignment system with an encoder device, a housing and a movable hub is presented. The encoder module may be integrated with an alignment system to facilitate a built-alignment feature for aligning an encoder device disposed within the encoder module. The encoder module may include a hub that may be movably arranged in the housing and rotatable about a central axis of rotation. The hub may be slidingly moved between a first position configured to set the encoder module to engage in a centering mode and a second position configured to set the encoder module to engage in a rotational mode. The encoder module may be configured to be slidingly disposed on a motor whereby a sleeve of the hub is configured to mate with a shaft of the motor by means of slide fitting.
