Autonics E40HB6-1800-6-L-5 is a 40 mm incremental rotary encoder known for its high-resolution precision and rugged performance in demanding industrial setups. It features a shaft inner diameter of Γ6mm and delivers an impressive resolution of 1800 pulses per revolution (P/R), making it ideal for systems that require fine feedback control. With a maximum allowable revolution of 5000rpm and a response frequency of 300kHz, this encoder is designed to handle high-speed applications with accuracy and consistency. It comes with a Line Driver control output, powered by a stable 5VDC Β±5% supply, ensuring noise immunity and signal integrity even over long cable runs. The radial cable type simplifies panel installation and supports flexible system integration.
Durability and reliability are key highlights of the E40HB6-1800-6-L-5 encoder. Its IP50 protection rating and compact 120g build ensure it withstands typical factory environments. The unit operates efficiently in ambient temperatures from -10Β°C to 70Β°C and humidity levels between 35% to 85% RH, with extended storage ranges as well. Its low starting torque (max. 0.0049NΒ·m) allows smoother system startups and reduced wear over time. These specifications make it a trustworthy component in systems where uptime and measurement accuracy are non-negotiable.
The Autonics E40HB6-1800-6-L-5 finds application in a wide range of industries such as automated conveyors, pick-and-place robots, CNC machinery, and material handling systems. Maintenance engineers value its precise feedback for speed and position monitoring, especially in motors and actuators. Engineering students studying mechatronics or industrial automation use it to understand encoder integration and signal processing. Whether you're setting up a new production line or retrofitting an existing machine, this encoder delivers the reliability and performance that process-driven teams demand.
