Key Product Advantages
-
High Resolution: With 65,536 pulses per revolution, it offers extreme precision for positioning and speed control tasks.
-
Fully Programmable: Users can configure the resolution, zero pulse position, and output level (TTL/HTL) using SICK’s programming tools (e.g., PGT-08-S), reducing inventory by allowing one part to serve multiple roles.
-
Rugged Construction: Features a die-cast aluminum housing and a stainless steel shaft, making it highly resistant to shock (100 g) and vibration (30 g).
-
Wide Voltage Range: Operates safely anywhere between 4.5 V and 32 V, making it compatible with various PLC and controller environments.
-
Long Service Life: Equipped with wide-set ball bearings that ensure a high level of mechanical stability and durability.
Product Applications
This encoder is suitable for sophisticated industrial environments, including:
-
Robotics: High-precision feedback for arm movement and rotational joints.
-
CNC Machining: Accurate tracking of spindle speeds and axis positioning.
-
Packaging & Printing: Synchronization of high-speed rollers and material feeding systems.
-
Textile Machinery: Managing complex thread tensioning and patterns.
-
Logistics & AGVs: Speed and direction monitoring for automated guided vehicles.
Important Usage Notes (Precautions)
-
Shaft Loading: Avoid exceeding the maximum permissible shaft load (80 N radial, 40 N axial). Using a flexible coupling is highly recommended to prevent premature bearing failure.
-
Electrical Protection: The outputs are short-circuit protected, but only for a maximum of 30 seconds. Ensure correct wiring before powering up.
-
Programming: If you intend to reprogram the PPR or output level, you will need the PGT-08-S or PGT-10-Pro programming tool.
-
Condensation: While the unit is IP67 rated, ensure that the optical scanning area is kept free of condensation to maintain signal integrity.
