Lika Electronic offers a full line-up of rotary optical kit encoders for direct integration into motors, robots and advanced automation systems. The range ideally meets the most diverse needs, from small to large shaft drives. Kit encoders excel in compact size, low profile, minimum weight, easy installation. The optical technology allows them to achieve high resolution and fine accuracy for a very precise control over movements, rotations, and positioning. 
AMM80 is a frameless and bearingless optical encoder, i.e. it is not equipped with shaft, bearings, flange, and housing. It is designed to have small footprint, very low profile, minimum weight, high resolution, and fine accuracy. It is ideally suited for direct integration into high performance and space critical applications such as robots, robotic joints, hollow shaft motors (direct drive torque motors, brushless motors, stepper motors), electromedical devices, and a variety of OEM motion control applications. It is also engineered in an extensive choice of mechanical and electrical options and can be customized to meet individual requirements.

This compact, slim, and lightweight encoder has a large through hollow shaft that fits diameters up to 45 mm / 1.77” and common motor sizes. Its operation is non contact and there are no components subject to wear and fatigue. The resolution is 23 bit singleturn (8,388,608 cpr) and 16 bit multiturn (65,536 rev.), the accuracy is ±0.010°. An additional incremental track offers 1,024 Sine/Cosine 1Vpp signals for speed feedback and interpolation needs.

Lika Electronic has long-standing experience in the encoders and position measurement industry and develops customer-specific solutions that meet individual size, shape, resolution, and connection needs.

EPU positioning units are designed to automate positioning mechanisms for changeovers and adjustment operations in auxiliary axes. They do it accurately with minimum time and costs.
They do it by wireless!

• Positioning units for automatic changeovers and adjustment operations
• Easily replace manual handwheels and position indicators
• Simplified control via wireless communication
• A single transceiver controls up to 32 units simultaneously
• No need for communication cables

Typical application sectors of EPU positioning units are changeovers in packaging and bottling lines, filling machines, pharmaceutical equipment, food processing machinery. To meet the stringent requirements of such industries EPUs use NSF H1 food grade grease. They are ideally suited also for the replacement of handwheels and position indicators when retrofitting outdated plants.

SFA-5000 / SFA-10000 is the extensive range of cable-pulling measuring systems with integral absolute encoder. It is offered in a wide choice of Ethernet and fieldbus interfaces:
Profinet, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, POWERLINK, MODBUS TCP, Profibus, CANopen, DeviceNet, 
MODBUS RTU.

The working principle of SFA draw-wire encoders relies on the back-and-forth movement of a robust stainless steel measuring wire fixed to the moving axis, controlled by the absolute encoder (the wire is pulled out and rewound). The measuring wire is able to reach measuring lengths up to 5,000 mm (196.85”) and 10,000 mm (393.7”) and can operate at a maximum speed of 2 m/s (78.7 inches per second). The flexibility of the wire enables linear paths to be measured and even curved paths through guiding rollers. They are also ideally suited for a variety of industrial applications. The enclosure is compact and rugged and provides IP65 protection.
SFA draw-wire encoders come in a large variety of Ethernet and fieldbus models and offer the full set of information and configuration parameters: position and velocity readout, full scaling with resolution programmable down to 0.024 mm (24 µm), preset, code sequence, extensive diagnostics, Ethernet and bus network settings.

Wire-actuated encoders can replace standard encoders in many uses. They can be a good solution, when the operational space is constricted or the environmental conditions are severe.
The encoder body in fact can be mounted in a safe place, easily accessible, and adequately protected. While the measuring wire requires minimum space and can be subjected to harsher conditions. Typical applications are mobile equipment and construction machinery (outriggers, stabilizing slides, booms), telescopic cranes, bucket trucks, forklift trucks, automated guided vehicles, agricultural/forestry machinery and equipment, scissor lifts, car lifts, loading platforms, warehouses, electro-medical equipment (computed tomography scans, operation and examination tables, hospital beds and dentist's chairs, etc.).

AMM36 from Lika Electronic is an optical absolute encoders designed in a kit module for direct integration into robotic systems. 
Modular encoders are compact, flat, and lightweight yet they excel in high resolution and fine accuracy. The range includes AMM36 miniature encoder. It offers a hollow shaft design for direct integration into robotic systems, robotic joints motors, and electromedical equipment.
Modular encoders can fit common motor sizes and shafts and can be shaped to fit virtually any package.

AMM36 is available in both singleturn and multiturn versions with SSI, BiSS, and RS-485 interfaces and additional Sine/Cosine track. The resolution is up to 21 bit singleturn and 40 bit multiturn. 

Incremental and absolute linear encoders SME, SMS and SMA from Lika Electronic are suitable for position and speed feedback of highly dynamic automation systems and linear motors and combine performance with rugged mechanical design and a wide choice of options.

• Wide range of incremental and absolute sensors to pick from
• Non contact, virtually wear- and maintenance-free operation
• No moving parts, no mechanical stresses
• Very compact and robust packaging
• Highest protection rate (up to IP69K) for heavy-duty environments

IF11 allows an SSI Master to switch data transmission between two SSI encoders.
By means of a 24 V CTRL digital commutation signal, SSI telegrams switch from one encoder to the other. An automatic internal synchronisation guarantees a correct information flow at changeover.

• Digital switching between two SSI encoders
• Automatic internal synchronization of signals
• Cascadable for several SSI encoders
• Slim and space-saving housing for DIN rail mounting (according to IEC/EN 60715)

IF11 is designed for contactless (non mechanical), bounce-free switching between two SSI encoders and one SSI Master unit.
