Assembly of rotary encoders with hollow shaft

The taylormade system solutions for hollow shaft attachment consisting of hollow shaft encoders as well as fitting mechanical accessories. Depending on the application shaft this solution is implemented by means of a robustly and individually designed high endurance flange or screw-in type adapter shaft as well as suitable torque brackets. As an option there are solutions for isolated hollow shaft assembly against shaft currents or as certified assembly with fatigue resistant safety components for applications with functional safety requirements. On-site measurement and installation possible, if required.
