Incremental Industrial Encoders

TKEB series

Main features

The encoder for weighing systems has a special monolitic assembling shaft (with a sprocket) and an
encoder disk, without coupling between the two elements.

This encoder is typically used on single and multiturn weighing heads.

The special bearings used on this device ensure very low rotation friction: 0,20 0,30 g/cm, therefore
similar to the friction of a TRIBOMETER system.

The shaft of this encoder has mechanical dimensions, diameter and length according to standards
whereas the customer has to specify the number of teeth as well as the sprocket module.

The design foresees the encoder signal output on axial or radial cable as well as on radial or axial
connector.

This particular encoder is available also in a version with low inertia rotor-disk group.
