Precision manufacturing industry needs precision instruments to work with. Without precision instruments, the measurement of physical param...
Another important tool when it comes to measurement is the magnetic linear encoder. Simply put, a linear encoder helps in encoding a position. The sensor converts the current position into digital signals and denotes the precise position on a monitor or any other output device. Encoders are generally of three types – Optical, magnetic or capacitive. However, the magnetic variety is the most used due to its sturdiness and precision calculations. Also, compared to the optical versions, the length of magnetic tapes can go longer. In fact, Electronica Mechatronic Systems makes magnetic linear encoder that can go to as long as 60 meters in length. The advantage of magnetic encores over the optical ones is that their sensitivity towards any kind of dust, dirt, liquids etc is very low making them an ideal choice on a shop-floor.
