Ø36mm A36 Incremental Optical Encoder
The A36 optical rotary encoder is a compact incremental encoder designed for precision motion control in tight spaces. With a small Ø36mm diameter, it can easily fit into narrow installations, making it ideal for compact machinery and automation systems.
This encoder supports both digital and analog output signals based on customer requirements and delivers up to 36,000 pulses per revolution (PPR) for accurate and reliable position feedback.
