Autonics has engineered the E40HB6-50-6-L-24 to offer stable and accurate rotary position detection in demanding industrial environments. With a shaft inner diameter of Γ6mm and a resolution of 50 pulses per revolution, this 40 mm incremental encoder is ideal for monitoring moderate-speed rotation. Its Line Driver output ensures signal clarity over long cable runs, supported by a regulated 12β24VDC Β±5% power supply for consistent performance.
The encoder can handle a maximum revolution of 5000 rpm and responds up to 300kHz, ensuring smooth operation in automation lines. Its radial cable connection enhances durability, and the IP50-rated enclosure offers dust protection for general-purpose use. Built for industrial-grade robustness, it withstands temperatures from -10Β°C to 70Β°C and relative humidity up to 85% RH. Compact and lightweight at approximately 120g, it includes a mounting bracket for easy installation and integration. You can explore official documentation on the Autonics encoder catalog here.
The E40HB6-50-6-L-24 is widely used in automated sorting systems, textile machinery, packaging lines, and labeling units. Maintenance engineers appreciate its simple wiring and reliable feedback, making it easy to diagnose and maintain. For junior technicians, its plug-and-play setup minimizes downtime and confusion. Senior engineers prefer this model for repeat applications where standard resolution is sufficient but reliability cannot be compromised. Engineering colleges also recommend this encoder in training setups to teach the fundamentals of rotary feedback systems. Whether youβre standardizing across multiple machines or replacing worn-out sensors, Autonics provides both performance and peace of mind in every unit.
