Information About AFM60A-S4IB018X12
The AFM60A-S4IB018X12 belongs to SICK’s AFS/AFM60 Ethernet series of absolute encoders. Its solid stainless-steel shaft and aluminum housing are designed for integration into industrial machinery and rotating equipment. The encoder uses a 10 mm shaft, a face-mount clamping flange, and M12 connectors for electrical and network connections. Its multiturn measurement capability records both angular position within a revolution and the number of revolutions, supporting accurate machine positioning and movement monitoring.
Key Features:
-
Absolute Multiturn Measurement: Provides position information without relying solely on incremental pulse counting.
-
High Resolution: Combines 18-bit single-turn resolution with 12-bit multiturn resolution.
-
EtherNet/IP Communication: Connects with compatible PLCs and industrial automation networks.
-
Solid Shaft Design: Features a 10 mm diameter shaft with a 19 mm shaft length.
-
Industrial Mounting: Uses a face-mount clamping flange for mechanical installation.
-
M12 Connectors: Includes one 4-pin male connector and two 4-pin female connectors.
-
Wide Supply Voltage: Operates from 10–30 V DC with power consumption of up to 3 W without load.
-
Environmental Protection: Provides IP65 protection on the shaft side and IP67 protection on the housing side when the mating connector is fitted.
The AFM60A-S4IB018X12 delivers the precision and dependable position feedback required for industrial robotics, packaging machinery, material handling, and automated motion control systems.
