Dunkermotoren AE65 Absolute Encoder

The Dunkermotoren AE65 is an absolute encoder that reports true shaft position the moment the drive powers up, so the axis is referenced immediately — with no homing move or reference run at start-up.

It sits inside the motor’s own profile housing rather than mounting as a separate unit, and feeds position to the internal Dunkermotoren controller. Its opto-mechanical counter retains the turn count through power cycles, so a machine restarts exactly where it stopped.

It integrates with the BG 66 and BG 75 motors, building absolute position feedback into the drive from the outset rather than adding it as a separate component later.

It suits positioning and motion-control tasks that must come up already referenced and hold their count through shutdowns — automated machinery and handling systems where a homing cycle at every restart isn’t acceptable.
