Video: Narrowest Multiturn Encoder For Drive Technology

In drive technology, the challenge is to develop drives that are always more compact - but at the same time with higher performance, more dynamics and improved energy efficiency. This also creates new requirements for encoders. In addition to accuracy, robustness and reliability, the requirement is "the more compact the better". So that drives can be made more compact, the encoder solution must also be adapted accordingly.
New possibilities when dimensioning the geared motor
Kübler has developed a completely new product for this - the Sendix F5883 in the Motor-Line version. An optical hollow shaft encoder with a depth of 43 mm. Compared to the Sendix 5883 multiturn encoder with mechanical gearbox, a smooth 27 mm was saved here. This opens up new possibilities when dimensioning the geared motor and when installing the rotary encoder in a confined space.
The Sendix F5883 in the Motor-Line version is based on the Sendix platform, which stands for robustness and reliability. Thanks to the Intelligent-Scan Technology, the encoder is fully optical, highly accurate and 100% magnetic field resistant. The encoder indicates very good EMC properties.
Numerous interfaces
A flexible connection to frequency inverters is given by the large number of interfaces such as SSI, BiSS, SinCos, RS422 and push-pull. Thanks to the robust bearing structure in the safety lock design, the encoder is particularly resistant to installation errors, shock and vibrations.
The encoder is equipped with a continuous hollow shaft up to max. 15 mm and clamping on the A and B sides available and thus the optimal solution for all common drive shafts for geared motors.
The low installation depth of 43 mm in connection with a tangential cable outlet makes the encoder the ideal solution for compact installation or easy to install in tight spaces. As a result, the Mutiturn encoders are now more widely used in geared motors - the same depth for absolute and incremental encoders make it possible. (jv)
