Introducing the New VLM-60 Multi-turn Encoder from Netzer Precision

Netzer is proud to introduce the new VLM-60 multi-turn, hollow shaft absolute rotary encoder, the ideal solution for smooth and continuous production with limited space.

The VLM-60 multi-turn encoder from Netzer is an extremely low profile, hollow shaft absolute rotary encoder. Often used in multi-axis machinery, servo motors machine tools or robots, and process machine manufacturing. The VLM-60 ensures the accuracy and reliability demanded by these applications.

A 17-bit single-plus-15-bit multi-turn resolution ensures smooth and continuous production since the master reads the multi-turn positions from the encoder both at start-up and throughout the operation. In case of a power outage or a machine shutdown, the VLM-60 maintains the multi-turn absolute position by utilizing an internal battery or an external power source.

Features:

  • 17 bit single + 15-bit multi-turn resolution
  • Low profile (<8 mm)
  • High resolution and precision
  • Hollow shaft
  • Adaptable resolution
  • Resistant to harsh environmental conditions
  • Magnetic fields immunity

Netzer VLP encoders are ideal for OEM applications. Featuring an open frame, 2 plate design, the sensor is lightweight, highly tolerant to temperature, shock, EMI, RFI and magnetic fields. It offers a unique combination of high performance at an economical cost.

The VLP-60 is a new member of the VLP series of Electric Encoders a product line based on Netzer Precision Motion Sensor proprietary technology. EE products are characterized by features that enable unparalleled performance including:

  • Low profile (<6 mm)
  • Hollow shaft (Stator / Rotor)
  • No bearings or other contact elements
  • High resolution and unparalleled precision
  • Very low weight
  • Digital interfaces for absolute position
  • Extremely low profile & weight
  •  Auto calibration option
  • High tolerance to temperature extremes, shock, moisture, EMI, RFI and magnetic fields

The holistic structure of the Electric Encoder makes it unique: Its output reading is the averaged outcome of the entire area of the rotor. This feature allows the EE a tolerant mechanical mounting and to deliver outstanding precision.
