Autonics E40HB8-2048-6-L-5 stands out with its 2048P/R resolution, delivering detailed and reliable position tracking essential for high-speed operations. Designed with a shaft inner diameter of Γ8mm and a maximum allowable revolution speed of 5000rpm, this encoder offers excellent performance for precision-driven environments. The Line Driver output provides stable signal transmission at a maximum response frequency of 300kHz, ensuring real-time accuracy in encoder feedback loops. It operates on a 5VDC power supply with ripple tolerance, reducing noise-related signal errors. Its radial cable connection type is built for durability in demanding settings, while the compact structure weighing approximately 120g allows for easy integration in tight control panels.
This 40 mm incremental rotary encoder is engineered with IP50 protection, ensuring defense against dust in typical factory conditions. With a robust operating temperature range of -10Β°C to 70Β°C and ambient humidity tolerance up to 85% RH, it performs reliably in varied climates, including high-humidity zones. The included mounting bracket adds installation flexibility, making it easy for maintenance teams to retrofit this encoder into both new and existing systems. Its minimal starting torque of 50gf.cm enhances sensitivity, especially in low-friction mechanisms where responsiveness is critical.
E40HB8-2048-6-L-5 is widely used in servo motors, industrial conveyors, automated labeling systems, robotics, and packaging machinery, where fine-grained feedback and precise rotation control are vital. For senior engineers, it ensures consistent pulse output even during fast direction changes. Junior technicians can install and wire the encoder with ease, supported by Autonics' standardized color codes. Engineering students frequently use this model in labs to understand encoder resolution and its impact on automation precision.
