Magnetic Encoders for Industrial Automation Systems

Magnetic encoders provide high accuracy with resolutions from 10 to 500 pulses per revolution depending on the specific model.

The magnetic encoders described include both incremental encoders that provide relative position feedback and programmable position indicators. The programmable models with RS485 MODBUS interface and dual-row LCD displays can track and report absolute position values through their digital communication capabilities.

Magnetic encoders are immune to dust, oil, and contamination while offering zero wear and longer service life, making them ideal for harsh industrial environments where optical encoders would fail.

Yes, magnetic encoders are available for both rotary and linear applications. Rotary configurations include hollow shaft and ring mount options with bore sizes from 14mm to 25mm, while linear encoders use magnetic band technology to provide measurement capabilities up to 50 meters.

Magnetic encoders are available with push-pull, line driver, and RS485 MODBUS output signal types to match different automation system requirements. The RS485 MODBUS interface enables digital communication for programmable position indicators.

Hollow shaft magnetic encoders offer versatile mounting with multiple bore sizes from 14mm to 25mm, allowing direct shaft mounting without coupling mechanisms. This configuration simplifies installation and reduces mechanical complexity in motor control and manufacturing applications.

Magnetic encoders are waterproof, chemical resistant, and designed specifically for harsh industrial conditions. Their non-contact magnetic technology makes them immune to dust, oil, and contamination, providing reliable operation in challenging manufacturing and process control environments.
