(HEIDENHAIN: Schaumburg, IL) -- HEIDENHAIN’s RENCO brand of encoders are well-suited and available for use within a variety of mobile robot applications. Specifically, the modular RENCO R35i and RCML15 rotary encoders (new brochure available) have proven to be essential for motion and speed feedback control in automated guided vehicle (AGV) projects used in distribution warehouses, manufacturing plants, and medical facilities. The encoders’ slim and lightweight design combined with their reliability is making them a popular go-to source for AGV feedback.

The RENCO R35i rotary encoder is particularly noted for its modular design without an integral bearing. It has a compact design with a 35 mm outside diameter and only 14 mm height as well as an easy, self-centering mounting, thanks to a patented slide lock. With its OPTO-ASIC technology, the RENCO R35i offers the greatest possible functionality with the smallest possible dimensions.

The RENCO RCML 15 rotary encoder offers similar reliability along with the OPTP-ASIC technology. It has a height of only 8.9 mm, offering an alternative to the R35i with a very low mounting profile.
