Their durability and resistance to the ingress of dust, dirt, and oil minimize required maintenance and allow these units to operate accurately and precisely in even harsh application environments. For further versatility, users are able to adjust the resolution without changing components, chooosing from 16 programmable resolutions from 48 to 4,096 PPR. To ensure compatibility with a range of motor shafts, our Capacitive Encoder kits include multiple bore sleeve options from 0.079" to 0.315".

Note: Encoders can be mounted in-house to any compatible dual-shaft Anaheim Automation motor for a nominal fee. Custom Encoder Cable lengths are available upon request.
