The magnetic measuring systems from the SMS series operate contactlessly via an encoder and a magnetized measuring tape or ring. The sensor is connected to a moving part and reads the position without mechanical contact. This system is wear-free and resistant to dust, dirt, oil, grease, moisture, shock, and vibration.
The measurement signal is generated by magnetic field changes in the tape or ring, which are converted into analog or digital signals with high accuracy and reproducibility.
Thanks to the use of high-quality plastics, metals, or stainless steel, these sensors are suitable for extreme industrial conditions. Typical applications include positioning and speed measurement in drive technology, robotics, material processing, and other highly stressed environments.
