AMCI-Stainless Steel Encoder

Designed For The Most Extreme Conditions: DuraCoder® brand encoders are now available with stainless steel housings and an IP69K rating for operation in the most extreme conditions. DuraCoders have a superior shaft load rating; providing a longer life cycle than other encoders. Many industrial applications require encoders that withstand a variety of harsh environments. Stainless steel DuraCoders reliably perform in applications where standard encoders fail.

AMCI specializes in the design, manufacturing, and sales of heavy-duty, industrial grade rotary encoders for many different applications.

DuraCoder®: Originally designed in 1993 for steel mill and earth mining equipment, AMCI’s DuraCoder® brand encoders have grown in popularity and are used in today’s most grueling applications. Considered the most durable line of rotary shaft encoders available anywhere, DuraCoder encoders are resolver-based for durability, and offered in five different output versions. Sold in an industry standard 2.5″ (63 mm) housing, DuraCoder fits most applications. Additionally, a large 4.25″ size multi-turn Analog output version is available for applications in steel mills, wastegate flood control, and any other environment subject to brutal conditions.

VersaCount by Veeder-Root

The NEW Veeder Root VersaCount 1/16 DIN size multifunction counter is the most versatile counter on the market today. Whatever your application, timing, counting, rate measuring, position indicating, volume measurement, speed monitoring, length cutting or batch, shift, pulse or piece counting, the VersaCount is the only device you need when versatility counts.

Versatility doesn’t stop with functionality. The highest count frequency in the industry enables the VersaCount to perform in applications not previously possible with an electronic counter.  What would speed be without accuracy? That’s why the VersaCount features an unprecedented prescaler accuracy to one ten thousandth. Further, automation and precision control are achieved using three presets with relay hold times programmable up to ten minutes.

Veeder Root is the first in the industry to offer a programming assistant where applications can easily be created, archived and printed using the proprietary Programming Assistant software. VersaCount XP models allow the user to easily upload programs via USB key or Ethernet connection.
