Low profile incremental rotary encoders with block commutation tracks are especially suitable for use in small-dimensioned servo motors. These rotary encoders of the Heidenhain 1000 and 1100 series come equipped with an industry-standard 35-mm diameter housing.
Rotary encoders of Heidenhain’s 1000 and 1100 series come with industry-standard 35-mm dia housing.
The encoders distinguish themselves by a short overall length and modern opto-ASIC based photoelectric scanning with integrated interpolation. Thanks to the electrical output at TTL levels with differential signals, the encoders can be connected to most all standard subsequent electronics for control of digitally controlled servo motors (up to edge lengths of 40 and 55 mm).
Currently available, the 1023 encoder has an overall length of 35.2 mm max and an IP 64 rating, making it useful in hazardous environments. The 1123 encoder has an overall length of 30.3 mm max and an IP 0 for general use.
Both encoders have mounted stator couplings and blind hollow shafts. Choice of appropriate commutation signals is available because the amount depends upon the number of poles of the motor to be controlled.
