Encoders for time-critical and cost-sensitive applications
Industrial Ethernet is increasingly becoming the de facto communication standard in automation technology where availability and performance are important, especially for time-critical and cost-sensitive plants. With these requirements in mind, Kübler is expanding its Industrial Ethernet encoder portfolio. Besides Profinet and EtherCAT, Ethernet/IP encoders will now be available to complete the product range.
The optical absolute singleturn and multiturn Sendix F58 EtherNet/IP encoders meet the needs of applications such as automotive production, logistics, metal processing, textile, printing and packaging machines. Features include IP67 environmental protection, a 1kHz update frequency, a temperature range from –40°C to +80°C and complete immunity to magnetic fields. The encoders also feature Kübler’s patented Safety-Lock bearing design.
