Product Features of Hollow‑Shaft Encoders

What are its characteristics? Encoders come in various types. Classified by mounting form, they can be divided into solid shaft encoders and hollow shaft encoders, while hollow shaft encoders are further subdivided into bushing type and through-hole type. Hollow shaft encoders mainly have three core features as detailed below:

1. The shaft bore size of hollow shaft encoders fits motor output shafts, and the mounting position can be flexibly adjusted via spring blades.

2. Hollow shaft encoders offer great flexibility. Featuring compact structure and easy adjustment, they are applicable to a wide range of scenarios.

3. The clamping mechanism and spring blade structure of hollow shaft encoders facilitate convenient position adjustment, and absorb vibration and impact loads from the driven equipment.

Driven by expanding application demands, more connection forms have been developed, and hollow shaft encoders have become the most widely used type at present.
