Modular MAG system
20 April 2015
Specialist in robust encoder and drive technologies, Johannes Huebner Giessen now offers its bearing-free magnetic encoder series MAG as a modular system. The flexible mechanical design makes it possible to adapt the encoder system to the individual installation on-site, facilitating tailor-made solutions and design freedom.
Design engineers as well as mechanical and systems engineers are now able to implement encoder solutions in situations where it is not possible to use standard encoders. For instance, it is possible to design extra slim encoders for confined spaces or with additional wide magnetic tracks for applications involving large axial shaft movements.
The modular MAG system includes both incremental and absolute encoders. They provide the user with high-precision signals thanks to special multiple scanning technology. In addition to special pulse-wheel constructions for high-speed ranges they boast robust mechanical properties and fastening elements designed for heavy-duty applications.
The magnetic encoders are suitable for applications with shaft diameters up to 1500mm, with or without a free shaft end. This opens up new options for designers to create solutions, for example for applications where there is a large shaft diameter or no free shaft end available to attach the encoder. Moreover, systems with a split pulse wheel are ideal for possible retrofitting solutions.
