Absolute bearingless encoders

Bearingless encoders from Baumer excel by their wear-free and magnetic scanning principle. Bearingless encoders are robust and reliable even under the harshest environmental conditions such as cold, moisture and dirt. Compared with bearing systems, bearingless encoders are very space-saving due to their small installation depth. Due to the compactness they can be integrated directly into existing systems. A costly and unprotected external mounting is therefore needless. Thanks to their durability and compact design, bearingless encoders from Baumer are the ideal choice for a broad field of applications.

• Flexible and easy selection
  • Broad portfolio for shaft designs from 5 ... 3183 mm, from small drive shafts to large drive / generator shafts
• Reliable and durable operation
  • Wearfree and non-contact magnetic sensing, high speed
  • Resistant to dirt, shocks and vibration
• Space-saving with high mounting tolerances
  • Short mounting depth thanks to radial sensing, minimum mounting depth 10 mm
  • High axial and radial air gap of up to ±5 mm (sensor head to magnetic pole wheel) allow easy installation and guarantee reliable operation, even under extreme conditions
• Supporting all standard controllers
  • SSI and CANopen interface, additional incremental signals (square or sine wave)
