Highly accurate and universal:

Linear optical position measuring system
for mechanical engineering and plant engineering.

Our linear optical position measuring system is based on a high-quality glass scale with optical scaling which is scanned by a reading head. Both feature optimum protection in a robust aluminium housing with double sealing lips. The system meets the very highest demands in terms of reliability and precision based on 20 years of practical experience in the rough conditions of day-to-day production.

High-quality components made by well-known manufacturers guarantee a high level of functional reliability and a long service life.

The system is suitable for high transversing speeds in rough environmental conditions in the areas of woodworking,
rock cutting, metalworking, textiles, printing, packaging, plastics processing, automation and assembly systems, laser/flame/water-jet cutting, electronic assembly, etc..

The entire system is insensitive to dust and water as well as shock, vibration and pressure in accordance with protection class IP53.
It is designed for operation at temperatures from 0° to +80° C.

Optimum protection

A robust aluminium housing with double sealing lips protects the glass scale and scanning unit from chips, dust and splash water.

Available in four different sizes:

S5: Length 50-550 mm (50 mm each + special length S5130 mm)

M5:Length 50-1200 mm (50 mm each)
