MAR-HX50A Tapered Shaft

Multi-Turn Absolute Encoder

Nikon`s standard model M50A Series Shaft type Model

Nikon absolute encoders (rotary encoders) incorporate proprietary optical and M-sequence absolute pattern technologies to integrate high reliability and compact dimensions. Used in a broad range of industrial machinery, including industrial robots for automotive production lines and machine tools, they have won widespread acclaim as standard sensors capable of detecting the rotational displacement of robot arms and other equipment as absolute values.
