TWK, a pioneer in development and manufacturing of high-precision safety sensors, will be attending this year's Automate Show from May 6th to 9th.

Functionally safe sensors are the main business of TWK-ELEKTRONIK GmbH in Düsseldorf since years. To expand the customer base, TWK is exhibiting at several trade fairs this year.

TWK will be exhibiting its new safety sensor range at the SPS in Nuremberg. The compact encoders and inclinometers will be on show from 14 to 16 November in Hall 7A I Stand 603.

Sometimes it just has to be more. In this case, TWK's newly developed ABN encoder model has a resolution that divides the full circle of 360° into over 4 million steps. To be precise, in 222 steps - that's a resolution of 22 bits. High accuracy is equally important. This is impressive with better than ±10 arcsec. That is less than ±0.003°. Precise measurements of positions and speeds up to 10,000 rpm are thus possible. The ABN will be available from September 2022.

TWK takes the next step in the direction of 'safety in sensor technology' and introduces the new sensor model TxSN with magnetic sensor system in the series of functionally safe sensors with the established interface standard CANopen Safety (EN 50325-5).
