Heavy-duty encoders have solid die-cast housings and robust designs that enable them to operate reliably in open-air settings where regular encoders would malfunction in order to tolerate liquid and solid particulate pollution.
Heavy-duty encoders use labyrinth seals with reverse-lead spiral grooves as their first line of defence to stop liquids and debris from entering the housing. Exposure to moisture, temperature extremes, salt spray, chemicals, and vibration is permitted by these seals, which is not possible with conventional encoders.
The solid die-cast housing that houses the sensor electronics is surrounded by bigger ball bearings that are mounted on either side of the encoders. The shafts of these encoders are preloaded to bear substantially greater forces in both radial and axial directions, even though they typically take up more space.
The Global heavy duty encoders market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The new Model 25SP, a programmable encoder in the industry-standard Size 25 package, was unveiled by Encoder Products Company (EPC) (2.5 in. x 2.5 in., or 63.5 mm). The Model 25SP’s tough, industrial housing houses a sophisticated collection of circuits that enable the encoder to be customised for specific application requirements.
Designers can pick from six output kinds, 32 waveform options, and any resolution between 1 to 65,536 CPR (or 262,144 counts using 4x quadrature counting) utilising the EPC’s optional programming module. With the help of these programming tools, a single encoder may be set up for a variety of applications, replacing numerous part numbers and saving money on inventory and downtime.
The new Leine Linde M500 rotary encoders are now available and include cutting-edge additional features into the existing strong series. The best potential life expectancy on the market, improved motion control performance in harsh settings, and frequently in a smaller, lighter size are all promises made by these bearingless inductive encoders to machine manufacturers and owners.
These M500 rotary encoders are now being offered in a number of variations through parent firm HEIDENHAIN in North America.
In addition to absolute and incremental encoders in the WDGA and WDGP series, Wachendorff Automation now offers a heavy-duty version in the 36 mm form. This version is distinguished by its higher protection level of IP69k and an extremely high bearing load of 300 N axially and radially.
These encoders are suitable for high-pressure/steam jet cleaning as a result. They are specially made for use in abrasive settings, including those found in mobile equipment, the food sector, or even vehicle washes.
POG 10 HeavyDuty incremental encoders from Baumer track the speed of the carriage’s drive as it nears the start ramp on Europe’s largest roller coaster, the Helix, at the Liseberg amusement park in Gothenburg.
In addition to providing riders with thrills, heavy-duty technology also ensures excellent reliability and precision under harsh environmental circumstances. The die-cast housings are incredibly strong and highly resistant to vibration and shock thanks to solid and generously sized wall thicknesses and a warp-proof construction.
