High-precision InCo 30 inductive hollow-shaft incremental encoder for industrial automation.

InCo 30 – Inductive Incremental Encoder

The InCo 30 inductive incremental encoder delivers precise position and speed feedback for hollow-shaft applications in industrial automation, robotics, and servo drive systems. Using advanced inductive sensing technology, it provides exceptional signal stability while remaining immune to magnetic interference, making it a reliable solution for demanding industrial environments.

Unlike conventional magnetic or optical encoders, the InCo 30 operates reliably in the presence of dust, dirt, moisture, and external magnetic fields. As a result, it maintains accurate performance in harsh operating conditions while reducing maintenance requirements. Its bearingless, wear-free design also extends service life and improves long-term reliability.

The encoder supports resolutions of up to 8,000 pulses per revolution (PPR) and features differential ABI outputs (A, /A, B, /B, I, /I) for stable, noise-resistant signal transmission. In addition, it operates with output frequencies up to 500 kHz, making it suitable for high-speed motion control applications.

Designed for industrial use, the InCo 30 operates in temperatures from -40°C to +105°C and includes reverse polarity and ESD protection to safeguard the electronics. Consequently, it delivers dependable performance in automation systems exposed to vibration, contaminants, and challenging environmental conditions.
