Magnetic Linear Encoder System - MLS-3

 The encoder forms a compact unit. The scanning unit is guided within the housing along scale.

• Long-life linear motion guide bearing system
• The scale, scanning unit and guide are protected against contamination by an aluminum extrusion and elastic sealing lips.
• The coupling elements between the scanning carriage and transfer web are designed to transfer motion in the measuring direction only.

MLS-3 Sealed Magnetic Measuring Scale in Guidance Profile and Guided Sensor Head:

MLS-3 Sealed Magnetic Measuring Scale system consists of a slide carrier determining position with sealed rugged aluminium profile. It operates without friction. The scanning head and scale are adjusted to each other during mounting. Sealed linear encoder is protected from dust, hips and splash fluids and ideal for operation on machine tools. MLS-3 Sealed Magnetic Measuring Scale is a contactless and wearless linear position measuring system. It is suitable many applications where other measuring systems would disappoint.

An aluminium housing and elastic sealing lips protect the magnetic tape, scanning carriage and guideway from chips, swarf, dirt and splashwater. The scanning carriage travels in a low-friction guide within the scale unit. It is compensates unavoidable misalignment between the scale and machine guideways. MLS-3 Sealed Magnetic Measuring Scale can be suitable many installation conditions.

APPLICATIONS:

The areas of application for MLS-3 position sensors are wide and varied Sealed linear encoders are ideal for applications requiring measurement of length with high accuracy and resolution in harsh environments with airborne liquids and particles such as coolants, lubricants, chips and swarf.

Typical areas of application:

• Machining centers
• Lathes
• Milling machines
