Many applications are designed to be as small and compact as possible, within the limits of their intended use. This conserves material resources as well as energy and manufacturing costs. Each component should take up as little space as possible, given its function. For this reason, we have expanded our line of bearingless encoders to include the world’s first safety-Kit Encoders with the Ethernet interfaces Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE) and PROFIsafe over PROFINET.
