TKMW60P Optical Absolute Multiturn Encoder (Hollow Shaft) – FAQ

1. What is the TKMW60P Encoder?
   The TKMW60P is an optical absolute multiturn encoder with a hollow shaft, featuring a 60 mm body diameter. It is designed to deliver precise position feedback across multiple full rotations, suitable for various industrial motion control applications.

2. Which hollow shaft diameters are available?
   The encoder supports hollow shaft diameters of 6, 8, 9.52, 10, and 11 mm, offering versatility for different shaft sizes in machinery setups.

3. What is the maximum resolution?

   • Singleturn Resolution: Up to 8,192 steps (13 bits)
   • Multiturn Resolution: Up to 4,096 turns (12 bits)
     This means the total resolution can be up to 25 bits (13 bits for singleturn + 12 bits for multiturn), ensuring high accuracy for position tracking.

4. Which output codes and interfaces does it support?

   • Available Codes: G (Gray), B (Binary), D (BCD)
   • Parallel Interfaces: OC (Open Collector), OP (Open Push-Pull), NPN, PNP
   • Serial Interface: SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface)
   • Programmable Interface: RS232, RS485
     Some specifications also reference PROFIBUS, suggesting an optional model variant may support it.

5. What are the key mechanical specifications?

   • Body Diameter: 60 mm
   • Shaft Material: Stainless steel
   • Shaft Loading: Axial 100 N; Radial 100 N
   • Maximum Speed: 6,000 RPM continuous
   • Bearings Life: Minimum of 5 × 10? revolutions
