Re: encoder suitability
I'm not an encoder expert by any means but when I plugged that number in out of curiosity, it didn't come up as an encoder. Maybe try again?

Re: encoder suitability
yeah..just make sure you get the higher count one..they make this same part number in many different ppr (line )
its nice to have a 2000 line encoder on spindle which results in 8000 counts per rev.
I see omron makes a 1200 ppr version of this encoder which would yield 4800 counts per rev. see if they make one higher.
Automation direct has some one sale for $65. https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/Se ... 22000.0%22

Re: encoder suitability
Keith, the ebay item i've quoted does say its a 2000 pr encoder, I'm quite confused with these encoder figures! Here's the specs:
Material:ABS+Aluminum
Shaft Material: SUS420J2
Supply Voltage: DC 5V-5%~24V+15% Pulse(p-p) less than 5%
Current : less than 70mA.
Output phases: A, B, Z (reversible)
Resolution (Pulse / rotation):10 20 30 40 50 60 100 200 300 360 400 500 600 720 800 1000 1024 1200 1500 1800 2000
Starting torque:<0.98mN.m
Maximum speed:6000r/min
Operating temperature:-10-70 centigrade
Store temperature:-25-85 centigrade

Re: encoder suitability
I just ordered the OMRON Rotary Encoder E6B2-CWZ1X 2000P/R E6B2CWZ1X on Ebay.
Looking at the documentation of the encoder, I don't see a reason why it should not work, and for only 26 USD I am willing to try this encoder.

Re: encoder suitability
hmm that has a slightly different model number to the one i've seen on ebay (as above) wonder what the difference is?

Re: encoder suitability
The difference is the output phases. the one I ordered has A A/ B B/ Z Z/ just as mentioned in the documentation of Centroid.

Could one of the centroid chaps confirm if this is a suitable encoder please?
