Advances In Magnetic Encoders
01 November 2012
The new magnetic encoders MAG(- G) 50...1200 from Johannes Huebner can be installed without bearings or housing.
Resistant to shocks and vibrations the system transmits interference-free signals even under extreme conditions. It adds an alternative to the standard optical scanning principle, which has to be protected in a closed housing with a bearing- supported shaft.
The magnetic scanning principle of Huebner uses a stationary sensor that records magnetic field changes of a rotating pulse wheel with north-south poles. The benefits: Huebner magnetic encoders are resistant to soiling and provide for large radial and axial tolerances. The encoders are wear-free and low noise. The variant with a split pulse wheel is suited for retrofitting and upgrading activities as well as for applications without a freeshaft end.
The magnetic encoders can evenbe installed in highly confined spaces due to their slim design. For shaft diameters between 16 mm and 1,000 mm, the system adapts flexibly to the specific set-up of the application.
