The Sendix F58 encoders combine certified Ethernet/IP support with patented mechanical and electro-optic technologies that ensure accuracy and reliability. These new optical absolute single- and multi-turn Ethernet/IP encoders have a diameter of 58 mm. The Sendix F58 encoders have a RPI time as low as 1 ms, which allows them to transmit position data about five times faster than many conventional encoders. This speed advantage makes the F58 encoders particularly well-suited to packaging, textile, and printing applications—or any application with fast machines that could be even faster with a position sensing upgrade.

Ethernet/IP also makes the encoders easy to commission because they start up as soon as they receive power and look for their IP address settings and configure them via software.
