Kübler

Kübler is a leading German manufacturer of rotary encoders, inclinometers, counting systems, and measurement and control equipment for industrial automation. The company, founded in 1960 in Villingen-Schwenningen, supplies precision sensors and measurement components for positioning, speed, and angle measurements in demanding industrial environments.

The Kübler product range includes incremental encoders, absolute single-turn and multi-turn encoders, magnetic encoders, SSI and BiSS encoders, shaft inclinometers, linear magnetic measurement strips, digital display units, counters, and process timers. Sensors are available in protection classes up to IP69K and available in ATEX configuration for explosive zones.

At Verkopershulp.nl you will find a wide range of Kübler encoders and measurement components. Our automation specialists help you choose the correct encoder based on your resolution requirement, connection interface, and environmental conditions.

History

Kübler Group was founded in 1960 in Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany. The company started as a manufacturer of mechanical counters and evolved into a technology leader in rotary encoders and industrial measurement equipment. Kübler annually invests a substantial share of turnover in R&D and has developed groundbreaking encoder technology for the robotics and drive industry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an incremental and absolute Kübler encoder? ▾
An incremental encoder generates pulses per revolution and requires a reference point after power-on. An absolute encoder gives a unique digital position value for each angle, even after power failure, eliminating the need for a reference run.
Which Kübler encoder interface should I use for my PLC? ▾
For standard PLC connections, HTL (Push-Pull) or TTL (RS422) incremental encoders are suitable. For absolute position values, SSI, PROFIBUS, EtherCAT, or IO-Link interfaces are available. Choose based on your PLC/drive brand and desired measurement resolution.
Are Kübler encoders available with hollow shaft for direct mounting? ▾
Yes, Kübler supplies encoders in various configurations: solid shaft (with coupling), hollow shaft with clamp coupling (direct mounting on machine shaft), blind hollow shaft, and built-in encoders without their own bearing. The hollow shaft version eliminates the need for a coupling.
What is the maximum encoder resolution of Kübler absolute encoders? ▾
Kübler absolute single-turn encoders are available with resolutions up to 17 bit (131,072 steps per revolution). Multi-turn encoders combine the single-turn resolution with 12-16 revolution counting for a total resolution of more than 4 billion unique positions.
Are Kübler encoders resistant to shock and vibration? ▾
Yes, Kübler industrial encoders are designed for harsh industrial environments and are resistant to shock up to 100g (11ms) and continuous vibrations up to 10g. Models without bearings (magnetic encoders) are inherently more robust due to the absence of mechanical wear components.
