Draw-wire encoders from SIKO measure position, speed and inclination
SIKO’s PURE.MOBILE series, the SG31 and SG61 wire-actuated encoders, feature a maximum measuring length of 3 to 6 m. Integrating the latest generation of inclinometers, they combine the ability to detect not only position and speed, but also the measured variable of inclination. The two wire-actuated encoders are complemented by the large SG121 and SG150 […]

New flexCoder sensors for robotics and automation
flexCoder technology New developments in robotics, automation and many other rotative applications are aiming for ever more compact designs and often cannot be implemented using the standard components available on the market. To prevent restricting the scope of design for the customer, SIKO offers a new flexCoder technology – an encoder system comprising a sensor […]
Compact DriveLine actuators for positioning applications
DriveLine actuators from SIKO GmbH are particularly well suited to optimizing processing and setup times thanks to their special power and control electronics, absolute sensor and integrated position controller. The new AG26 actuator is the same as the AG06 as far as electric motor and gearing are concerned. In addition to the data interfaces that […]
Absolute redundant rotary encoder tracks angles and paths
By Mathias Roth, Branch Manager of Mobile Automation at SIKO • Edited by Lisa Eitel || Safety guidelines for mobile machines and their requirements have always influenced new mobile-machine builds. Now with the release of EN ISO 13849, new rules dictate how to reliably record angles and displacements. In fact, draft standards such as EN 13000 for mobile cranes […]
Siko AH36M rotary encoder features “teach-in-function”
Siko GmbH (www.siko.de) has proudly announced the release of a new rotary encoder that adapts to the application and not vice versa — the AH36M rotary encoder. With this principle, the company has taken a new direction in the rotary encoder segment, and has incorporated a magnetic analog absolute encoder that features a “teach-in-function” to […]
