Omron E6H-C Incremental Hollow-shaft Encoder - 40 mm Slim Encoder
The Omron E6H-C Incremental Hollow-shaft Encoder is a compact rotary feedback device designed for accurate speed and position detection in industrial automation systems. This model belongs to Omron’s incremental hollow-shaft encoder category and features a 40-mm external diameter with a slim profile for space-efficient installations. The E6H-C series is engineered to deliver precise pulse output for rotating shafts without couplings. Manufactured by Omron, this encoder is classified under Omron Rotary Encoders used in industrial motion control environments.
The Omron E6H-C Incremental Hollow-shaft Encoder is designed to directly mount onto machine shafts, eliminating alignment complexity while ensuring reliable rotational feedback. It supports a high resolution of up to 3,600 pulses per revolution (PPR), enabling precise speed monitoring and position control in automation equipment. The encoder’s 40 mm external diameter combined with a slim 26 mm thickness allows installation in compact machinery and densely populated control assemblies. As an incremental model, it generates consistent pulse signals suitable for PLCs, counters, and motion controllers. The E6H-C series is widely used in conveyors, motors, packaging machines, and industrial equipment where accurate hollow-shaft feedback and compact mechanical design are essential for stable automation performance.
