SICK AFM60A-S1NB018x12 - Absolute-Position-Read/Parallel-Data-Output - IP65 Aluminum Single Cable Solid Shaft Multi-Turn Absolute Encoder
Product Overview
The AFM60A-S1NB018x12 is a 60mm Basic-tier multiturn absolute encoder featuring 18-bit single turn + 12-bit multi-turn resolution (30-bit total, 18*4096). Designed with servo flange and 6/10mm solid shaft configuration, this encoder operates on 4.5-32V power supply with IP65/IP67 protection and withstands temperatures from -40°C to +100°C.
Key Features: Battery-free multiturn operation, high temperature tolerance, PROFINET communication interface, and robust construction for harsh industrial environments.
Applications & Advantages
Ideal for servo systems, winding applications, ASRS, and CNC machinery where absolute position and turn count data is critical. Eliminates homing requirements and battery dependencies while operating in extreme temperature conditions.
- Battery-free multiturn operation for reduced maintenance
- Extended temperature range (-40°C to +100°C) outperforms standard performance tiers
- Cost-effective Basic-tier solution without compromising reliability
- PROFINET interface for seamless integration with industrial networks
