Wachendorff WDG 40E-06-100-ABN-R24-K3 Incremental Encoder

Buy online your Wachendorff WDG 40E-06-100-ABN-R24-K3 Incremental Encoder from US e-store Cnc-shopping USA, specialist in CNC machine-tools spare parts.

The Wachendorff WDG40E-06-100-ABN-R24-K3 is a compact incremental rotary encoder from the WDG 40E series, designed to provide reliable A, B and index feedback for CNC machines, servo systems and industrial automation equipment. It supplies accurate quadrature signals for speed monitoring, position tracking and homing applications.

With a compact 40 mm housing, a 6 mm solid shaft and 100 pulses per revolution, this Wachendorff encoder is suitable for space-constrained installations on CNC axes, spindles, gearmotors, feed rollers, conveyors and packaging equipment. The ABN output provides A and B quadrature channels together with an index pulse for repeatable referencing and positioning.

The encoder operates from a 10–30 VDC supply with a current consumption of 70 mA and a maximum output current of 40 mA push-pull. The exact reference WDG40E-06-100-ABN-R24-K3 should be matched with the existing encoder to ensure compatibility with the required shaft size, mounting configuration, signal interface and electrical characteristics.

This Wachendorff incremental encoder is a practical replacement unit, spare part or CNC replacement component for machines experiencing missed counts, unstable speed feedback, following errors or unreliable homing. Its compact design makes it suitable for retrofit projects and maintenance of legacy CNC and industrial equipment.

Keeping a tested unit in industrial spare inventory can help reduce downtime during planned maintenance or unexpected encoder failures. It can also serve as an emergency spare for critical production equipment requiring rapid restoration of motion feedback.

Each unit supplied by Cnc-shopping can be function tested on dedicated encoder test benches or CNC simulators to verify pulse count, signal quality, phase relationship and index operation. Units are securely packaged for industrial transport and supplied with a commercial warranty, with fast dispatch depending on availability and worldwide shipping.

The Wachendorff WDG40E-06-100-ABN-R24-K3 can also be sourced for obsolete equipment, with repair services and exchange services available when applicable. This provides maintenance teams with practical options for keeping older CNC and automation systems operational.
