Versatile encoder handles many markets
The Hohner 07 series incremental hollow shaft encoder bridges several product lines, bringing features to a mini encoder that were previously unavailable in units of this size.
Available from stock, the newcomer has all the output channels and 1024pulse/rev.
For light to medium duty applications, the device is suitable for OEM customers that seek cost-savings due to ease of installation and a hollow-shaft encoder that brings a clean-profile to their equipment design.
A spokesman for the manufacturer said: "The low cost of the 83 makes it suitable replacement for a proximity switch/tooth gear arrangement, because an encoder will provide improved durability and precision".
OEMs requiring position, direction, or speed feedbacks - such as conveyor manufacturers, packaging equipment designers, or elevator type lifting equipment - are the most likely users of this innovative and keenly priced device.
