Siemens Field-Replaceable Encoders

Siemens research and development continues to introduce new servomotor advantages that will benefit both the machine builder -- and the owner. For greater serviceability, the encoders on our 1FK7 and 1FT7 servomotors are completely replaceable in the field. Replacements can be done quickly, without having to remove the entire motor for outside servicing. A keyed coupling and guide-way assure the precise alignment of encoder and rotor. This increases resistance to vibration, among other performance enhancements. Bring higher performance and ease-of-use to your motion control application... with advanced servomotor technology, from Siemens.
