High-resolution magnetic measuring system for absolute position measurement in dynamic applications. Ideally suited in linear drives.
Features
- High-resolution – up to 1 µm
- Operation speed up to 10 m/s
- For measuring lengths up to 8 m
- Standard interfaces: SSI, CANopen (DS406) on request: RS422, CAN BASIC ELGO or BiSS-C
- Additional incremental square-wave signals (A, B) or analog signal output Sin/Cos (1 Vpp) in real-time for highly dynamic control (option)
