In today's world of industrial automation, precision and reliability play a key role. That's why it's worth paying attention to HLA27 absolute encoder with SSI digital interface – an advanced solution for systems requiring precise position measurement. In this article, we'll take a closer look at its operation, advantages, and applications in modern industrial installations.

What is an absolute encoder?

An encoder is a sensor that converts rotary motion into a digital signal, allowing precise determination of the shaft's position. Unlike incremental versions, absolute encoder saves and "remembers" its position even after the power is disconnected - which makes it invaluable in applications where data continuity is required and there is no need to reset after restarting the machine.

Why choose the version with the SSI interface?

SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) is a digital data transmission standard that enables fast and error-free information transfer between the encoder and the controller. Compared to traditional analog or incremental outputs, the SSI interface guarantees:

• greater resistance to electromagnetic interference,
• ability to read position with high precision,
• easy integration with modern PLC controllers.

Key Features of the HLA27 SSI Encoder

The HLA27 absolute encoder is a compact yet technologically advanced device. Here are the key parameters that distinguish this model:

• Resolution up to 13 bits (8192 positions per revolution)
• Wide range power supply 5-30V DC
• Housing with a degree of protection IP65, resistant to dust and moisture
• Maximum rotational speed up to 6000 rpm
• Digital output RS-422 SSI compliant
• Availability of various shaft and mounting versions

All this makes the HLA27 suitable even in difficult industrial conditions.

HLA27 SSI Encoder Applications

Thanks to its versatility and accuracy, HLA27 SSI encoder is used in many industries:

• CNC and machining machines – for precise determination of the position of the spindle or moving elements
• Industrial robotics – in robot arms, drives and manipulators
• Transport and logistics systems – e.g. to control the position of trolleys, conveyors
• Automation of industrial gates and doors – to monitor the position of wings or guides
• Energy and wind farms – to control the angle of the rotor blades

Summary

If you are looking for a solution that combines measurement accuracy, operational reliability and simplicity of integration, absolute encoder HLA27 SSI will be an excellent choice. Its modern design and digital interface make it meet the requirements of the most advanced industrial applications.
