The FGH40K-2000G-90G-NG/20P heavy-duty incremental encoder is a precision feedback device designed for demanding industrial applications, particularly in the steel and metallurgy sectors. As the original model has become increasingly difficult to obtain, we provide a fully customized 1:1 replacement solution. Our engineering team ensures exact replication of all mechanical and electrical specifications — including pulse resolution, output signals, shaft size, and mounting dimensions — allowing seamless installation into existing systems without modification. This custom replacement not only maintains system compatibility but also solves procurement delays and long lead-time issues common with rare or discontinued models.
In practical use, the FGH40K-2000G-90G-NG/20P stands out for its accuracy, mechanical robustness, and consistent signal performance under extreme industrial conditions. It is widely used in rolling mills, heavy machinery, and metallurgical automation lines where precision feedback and reliability are critical for production stability. Our customized encoder preserves all the original functional parameters while offering non-standard options such as alternative connectors, special shafts, or custom housing designs. This flexibility allows users to adapt their systems easily and extend the operational life of valuable equipment without compromising on performance.
Our heavy-duty encoder replacement solutions are already in service across multiple regions including the Middle East, Russia, Southeast Asia, Indonesia, and South America. These installations have demonstrated high stability and precision in continuous operation, helping global customers overcome supply shortages and reduce equipment downtime.
