The CR65-4096G21A01 is offered as a fully customized replacement encoder, produced using a 1:1 design approach that replicates all mechanical dimensions and application parameters of the original unit. This tailored solution allows direct installation, resolving procurement and application challenges associated with discontinued or difficult-to-source encoders.
The replacement has been successfully exported to multiple countries, including the Middle East, Russia, Indonesia, Brazil, Southeast Asia, and Ukraine. Its popularity is driven by reliable performance, cost-effectiveness, and a fast production lead time of 15 working days. Clients consistently praise it for enabling uninterrupted industrial operations while minimizing sourcing and downtime issues.
