The STS030-HN030-AK22 is a non-contact, bearingless absolute rotary encoder from the SICK STS series, designed for direct motor integration with a 30 mm through hollow shaft. It uses the HIPERFACE® digital interface, which combines power and data over a single cable, simplifying installation and minimizing wiring. The encoder’s compact and wear-free design ensures high reliability, even in environments with tight space constraints.
