Benefits Introduce In Detail

Intelligent incremental encoder with digital display and IO-Link

Incremental encoders provide accurate position feedback for rotating machine shafts. ifm offers a wide range of intelligent encoders that can be used as encoders, counters, or speed/direction monitors. The encoder’s evaluation pulse can reduce the load on the controller. These encoders have the ideal functions required for applications in material handling, packaging, automotive, wood, and printing/paper industries.

Easy setup via buttons or IO-Link

Using a simple button menu, the resolution can be programmed from 1 to 10,000, with optional HTL or TTL output. Parameters can also be set via ifm’s LineRecorder Device software or IO-Link. No need to stock multiple encoders!

Dual-color digital display for convenient monitoring and troubleshooting

These intelligent encoders are equipped with a dual-color (red/green) integrated digital display, which can indicate whether the process value is within the accepted range or has exceeded the limit. The display value can also be easily set to rotate 180°, increasing installation flexibility.

Reliable performance and rich options

ifm’s incremental encoders use magnetic technology, providing the accuracy of traditional optical encoders and the robustness of magnetic encoders. They are resistant to shock and vibration, have a high switching frequency, and are available with a 6 mm or 10 mm solid shaft or a 12 mm diameter hollow shaft. These encoders use a rotatable, industry-standard M12 connector, which can be placed radially or axially.
