Safety encoder with ultra-compact dimensions
With the TRK38, TWK introduces an ultra-compact single-turn magnetic encoder developed with safety-oriented applications in mind.
With the TRK38, TWK introduces an ultra-compact single-turn magnetic encoder developed with safety-oriented applications in mind. With a diameter of only 38 mm and a length of also 38 mm, the sensor is suitable for mounting in confined installation spaces. The safety level is high: the safety encoder detects position and speed and fulfils the requirements of SIL 2 (IEC 61508) and PL d (EN 13849). The safety-related signals are transmitted via a certified EtherCAT FSoE interface.
High power density in a compact package: Packaging has become a key factor in many stationary and mobile machines. A new development from TWK comes at just the right time.
