Is the VersaPlanetary Integrated Encoder Thru Coupling the same material as the typical Versaplanetary gearset? Is there a maximum torque/power for the coupling, or is it more likely that other things will break first? This is a 'best practice' question for something like an arm or something like a 2015 tote elevator winch. Phrased via example, would the encoder be safe enough on the last stage in (e.g.) the faster stackers of 2015 or would we want to consider moving it a stage up to reduce its transmitted torque?
