Description

The FANUC A860-0360-T201 is a pulse coder, also known as an encoder, used with FANUC AC servo motors in industrial automation applications.

Here’s a breakdown of its function and how to find more information about it:

Function:

  • The A860-0360-T201 is a rotary encoder. It converts the rotational motion of the motor shaft into electrical pulses.
  • The number of pulses generated corresponds precisely to the angular movement (rotation) of the shaft.
  • This allows the FANUC system’s controller to precisely track the motor’s position and speed.

Applications:

Encoders like the A860-0360-T201 play a crucial role in precise positioning and motion control within industrial automation systems. Here are some common applications:

  • CNC Machines: In CNC machines, the encoder’s feedback on motor position ensures accurate movement of the cutting tool along various axes (X, Y, Z) as programmed in the control program.
  • Industrial Robots: Similar principles apply to industrial robots, where encoders on motors enable precise control of the robot’s arm movements.
  • Other Automation Systems: The A860-0360-T201 can be used in various industrial automation applications where precise positioning and speed control of FANUC AC servo motors are critical.
