AKS17 High-Precision Absolute Magnetic Encoder

The AKS17 encoder, paired with BOGEN magnetic scales, delivers cost-effective absolute magnetic measurement solutions for a wide range of industrial automation and motion control applications.

This versatile encoder supports linear measurements up to 3 m and rotary measurements—radial or axial—from 102 mm to 988 mm in diameter. With a linear resolution of up to 156 nm and rotary resolution up to 24-bit (16,777,216 CPR), the AKS17 provides exceptional accuracy far beyond typical shaft-end applications.

Its compact design (28 mm × 16 mm × 6.6 mm Molex / 3.4 mm FFC) and IP67 protection ensure reliable performance in harsh industrial environments.

Key Features:

• Miniature sensing head with dual orientation

• Magnetic sensing up to 24-bit (16,777,216 CPR) and 2.35 m measuring length

• Supports absolute BiSS-C, SSI, or incremental AB0+UVW output

• Compact and robust with IP67 protection

Applications:

• Industrial automation

• Robotics and handling systems

• Precision motion control

• Harsh environment machinery
