AksIM-4™ Big Rings
Off-Axis Rotary Absolute Magnetic Encoder


AksIM-4™ is a non-contact, high performance off-axis absolute rotary encoder designed for integration into applications with limited space and systems with larger diameters. A hollow ring, absolute functionality, and high accuracy make this encoder suitable for many applications.
The AksIM-4™ encoder system consists of an axially magnetised ring and a readhead. The encoders are equipped with BiSS communication interface and offer binary resolutions up to 21 bits per revolution and high accuracy.
