1-inch series resolvers offers fully housed configuration
Honeywell’s Hawk 1-inch series resolvers offer a full housed configuration, shock specification of 50 g, 11 ms, vibration specification of 15 g, 10 Hz to 2000 Hz, wide operating temperature range of -50.8 °C to 93.3 °C.
Honeywell
introduced the Hawk Resolvers 1-Inch Series, Fully Housed Configuration, which provide enhanced accuracy (±7 arcmin) for precise motion control. With the launch of the Hawk Resolvers, Honeywell now offers two off-the-shelf versions, as well as resolvers that can be customized to meet specific end-user needs.
Potential defense applications for the 1-Inch Series include positioning for electro-optical systems, gimbals/communication pedestals, infrared systems, vehicle transmission systems, and test equipment. Potential space applications include positioning for satellite, satellite antenna, space station, and space vehicle solar panel arrays.
The Hawk 1-Inch Series Resolvers offer shock specification of 50 g, 11 ms, vibration specification of 15 g, 10 Hz to 2000 Hz and wide operating temperature range of -50.8 °C to 93.3 °C [-60 °F to 200 °F] which allow for use in harsh military and aerospace applications. The resolvers also feature a wide excitation voltage range of 2 V to 15 V; which allows customers to standardize on a resolver that meets their excitation voltage needs, simplifying sourcing and delivery, and saving time as well as global support.
In addition to its non-contact design, the lack of electronics, and the use of space-qualified materials, Hawk Resolvers meet multiple military/aerospace specifications: DO-160D, MIL-STD-202G, MIL-STD-810G, MIL-STD-81963B, MIL-STD-461F, and comply with space outgassing requirement SP-R0022.
The fully housed configuration with bearing/shaft has a small outer diameter of 1 inch, which allows for use in size-restricted applications. The single speed operation (1 magnetic pole pair) allows for cost-effective angle resolution over a 360°+ range, and the wide excitation frequency range of 2000 Hz to 5000 Hz provides a wide variety of choices with which to power the device. The transformation ratio of 0.45 or 1.0 offers customers two choices, increasing flexibility within the application.
The Honeywell Hawk™ 1-Inch Series Resolvers are also available with a variety of options, including:
- Custom trim designed to allow tighter accuracy;
- Connections which include custom lead wire, cable, connector on unit or connector on cable;
- Titanium housing which provides enhanced durability and resistance to corrosion; lightweight;
- Custom redundant version (two independent resolvers within the same housing) which provides reliable back-up/fail-safe in critical applications;
- Transformer for 360°+ rotation (continuous).

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
