An angular position sensor unit has an encoder disc that is connected through a hub to an element whose angular position is to be measured. The encoder disc is made of a plastic material with a thickness between 0.1 and 1.0 mm and a planarity of <0.2 mm. An opening through the center of the encoder disc receives a flange of the hub. The flange has three or more ridges extending symmetrically in radial directions and engaging punched slots of the encoder disc. The slots conform to the contours of the ridges, so that the encoder disc is held in its position relative to the hub in a form-fitting, positive manner. In the axial direction, the disc is locked in place by the retainer. |
