When Replacing a Wheel Encoder, Should You Choose a Hollow Bore or a Bearingless Encoder?

Selecting the right encoder solution can improve installation, reliability, and long-term machine performance.
A hollow bore encoder is often the preferred choice when you need a traditional shaft-mounted solution with straightforward integration.

A bearingless (rim) encoder becomes especially attractive when:
* Installation space is limited
* Shaft diameters vary
* Large shaft diameters are required
* A compact, wear-free solution is desired
The right choice depends on your mounting requirements, shaft geometry, and overall machine design.

Watch this week's Kuebler Korner to learn which solution may be best for your application.

Not all measurement applications are easy.

Dust, vibration, changing material surfaces, and constant motion can create challenges for accurate speed, position, and length measurement.

That’s where Kuebler Measuring Wheel Systems help customers improve reliability and accuracy in real-world industrial environments.

By combining a measuring wheel with an encoder, the system converts rotational movement into precise linear measurement data directly from the material surface. Integrated spring mechanisms help maintain consistent contact for dependable measurements across a wide range of applications.

Customer Benefits:
* Accurate linear measurement
* Reliable slip-free performance
* Improved machine consistency
* Flexible and durable design
* Better process control and repeatability
* Reduced downtime from inaccurate measurements

Ideal for applications involving:
• Speed measurement
• Position detection
• Length measurement
• Conveyor systems
• Material handling
• Packaging machinery
• Wood, paper, textile, and converting industries

In automation, even small measurement errors can become expensive over time. Having dependable feedback helps improve productivity, reduce waste, and keep machines running efficiently.

Not all encoder applications demand the same priorities.

One of the biggest differences we see across industries is how machine environments completely change encoder requirements.

In packaging machinery:
• High-speed synchronization matters
• Repeatable motion control is critical
• Fast cycle times drive performance expectations

In heavy industrial equipment:
• Shock and vibration resistance become essential
• Long-term durability matters more
• Harsh environmental reliability is often the priority

The application may use similar technology - but the engineering focus can be dramatically different.

That’s why selecting the right encoder is about more than just specifications on paper. It’s about understanding what the machine experiences every single day.

Automation looks different depending on the machine.

A high-speed packaging line and a heavy industrial machine may both use encoders… but the demands are completely different.

How are Encoders used differently in Packaging Machines?

In packaging applications, encoders are often focused on:
* Speed
* Repeatability
* Synchronization of fast-moving processes

In heavy industrial equipment, the priorities shift toward:
* Durability
* Shock resistance
* Surviving harsh environments

The encoder’s job may sound similar on paper, but the real-world design priorities can be very different depending on the machine.

Choosing the right encoder is about understanding what the equipment demands every single day.

Most maintenance teams don’t want more sensors.
They want fewer unexpected shutdowns.

That’s where condition monitoring can make a real difference.

Modern automation systems are generating more data than ever - but one of the most valuable things a machine can tell you is when something is starting to go wrong before it fails.

Condition monitoring sensors help operators detect:

• Increasing vibration from imbalance or bearing wear
• Mechanical shock from impacts or machine stress
• Temperature changes that may indicate overheating

The benefit to the customer isn’t just “monitoring.”
It’s:

✔ Reduced unplanned downtime
✔ Earlier maintenance visibility
✔ Better equipment reliability
✔ Improved maintenance scheduling
✔ Lower long-term repair costs

At Kuebler, we continue to see growing interest in simple, compact condition monitoring solutions that integrate easily into existing automation systems using IO-Link and real-time machine data.

As machines become smarter, predictive maintenance is becoming less of a luxury - and more of a competitive advantage.

Kuebler Korner #62 - Uninterrupted Rotation in Modern Automation

One of the biggest hidden challenges in machine design is managing continuous rotation without damaging cables or losing reliable signal transmission.

That’s where slip rings become essential.

They help deliver continuous power, signals, Ethernet, and data transmission while equipment rotates freely - making modern automation systems more reliable and practical.

You’ll commonly find slip rings in:

* Robotic arms
* Packaging equipment
* Rotary indexing systems
* Cranes & heavy equipment
* Surveillance and defense systems

Without slip rings, cable twisting and cable management quickly become major limitations.

As automation systems continue becoming faster, smarter, and more connected, reliable rotary transmission is more important than ever.
