The FG40KK-5000G-90G-NG is a widely used incremental encoder in the steel and metallurgy sector, offering 5000 pulses per revolution. It is commonly applied in drive systems, conveyor monitoring, and steel rolling equipment, where dependable feedback is required.
Its popularity is due to its balance of precision and ruggedness, providing stable performance even in the toughest operating environments. Steel mills rely on this encoder to maintain continuous operation and precise process control.
We have developed a custom replacement encoder designed to match the original in mechanical and electrical specifications, ensuring compatibility with existing systems. This provides a practical solution for operators struggling with long lead times.


Our replacement products are engineered for endurance and reliability, ensuring they deliver consistent output in 24/7 heavy-duty applications. For steel production plants, this means stable operations with minimized risk of downtime.
We also offer non-standard customization options, enabling the production of encoders suited to specific installation environments or tailored technical requirements. This helps operators keep their production systems optimized and reliable.
To help solve procurement challenges, we guarantee customized replacements within 15 working days, giving steel industry operators a dependable way to shorten delivery cycles and maintain productivity.
