New incremental encoders from ifm electronic truly break the mould: not only are they programmable, they have switched outputs for a pre-set count or speed but the real innovation is the built-in display of, for example, count or speed.
Setting the resolution and the many other functions simply using the intuitive pushbuttons on the encoder. Remote setting is also possible, and for this ifm electronic chose the open IO-Link standard
Machine builders and encoder users can now select the required housing and shaft size, and that is all they need to stock. These smart encoders also offer selectable 5V or 24V outputs.
Customers tell us they don’t like M23 connectors, so the new range is equipped with the more compact M12, which also rotates to select the cable angle.
