120 catalogue numbers across 13 manufacturers, all of them ones we actively buy. Find yours below, or send the nameplate and we will tell you either way.
Catalogue numbers
We buy rotary encoders, pulsecoders, resolvers and motor feedback units, incremental and absolute, along with encoder couplings and feedback cables. Not on the list? It does not mean no — send the number and you will get an answer either way.
Scope
Mitsubishi OSA and OSE encoders and BN030 assemblies; Fanuc A860 pulsecoders; Heidenhain EQN, ERN and ROD units including the Indramat-badged ones; Sick and Stegmann SRM, SRS, SKS, SFM and EKM feedback encoders; Tamagawa TS series and Smartsyn resolvers; Yaskawa UTSIH, UTTAH and UTOPH encoders; Okuma ER series; Faulhaber HEDL and HEDM modules; Delta NH4; Siemens 6FX; plus BEI, Baumer, Dynapar, Accu-Coder, SKF, Panasonic, Reliance and Dynamics Research. An encoder removed from a motor can be sent on its own.
Condition
Send the type string from the encoder body rather than from the motor it came off - the two carry different numbers and the motor number cannot be used to identify the encoder. Where the label prints a resolution or line count alongside the model, send that too, and say whether the coupling, connector and cable are present.
We prefer new or new-in-box, and will consider used that was working when it came out. Tell us which it is — that is the single thing that most affects the offer.
There is no minimum. One unit is worth sending on its own, and multiples of the same part are welcome. Looking for something else? We also buy ac drives.
Process
Catalogue numbers off the nameplates, quantities, and whether each is new in box or used.
A cash offer on the lot, or a straight answer that it is not something we buy.
A prepaid label for boxes, or we book the freight for a pallet.
Payment by PayPal once the shipment arrives, clearing within a day.
A free valuation costs you an email and about two hours of waiting.
