For integration in linear and rotary drives Compact, high-precision technology Integrated sensor system solutions are indispensable for the most compact drive possible. BML magnetic encoders, which are available in incomparably small form factors, are suited for direct integration into both linear and rotary drives. These measuring systems consist of a sensor and a magnetic tape, which features Permagnet technology for an absolutely homogeneous magnetic field. This guarantees high function security, low hysteresis and minimum linearity deviations. During use, the sensor slides over the...

Feedback systems for linear direct drives LINEAR DIRECT DRIVE FOR SHORT STROKES With BML magnetic encoder systems OPTIMAL POSITION FEEDBACK FOR DIRECT DRIVES UP TO 48 M With BML magnetic encoder systems Our magnetic encoder systems handle the high clock frequencies and accelerations of the especially maintenance-friendly linear drive for short strokes with no difficulty. Since there is no cable between the stationary part and the easy to move slide of the linear drive, no drag chain is needed. The magnetic tape can be installed on the lower part of the slide and the sensor head on the base...

High-precision position feedback in the torque motor Flat styles for large hollow shafts When you're dealing with highly dynamic, fast and accurate positioning tasks, torque motors with BML magnetic encoder angle measurement systems are the ideal choice. Used with a servo they ensure exact position feedback. This is critical for positioning accuracy, energy efficiency, life expectancy and the design of the entire application. Their small sensor head and flat code disc with large inside diameter make the Permagnet coded systems excellent for integration in torque motors. control quality:...

Detect end and intermediate positions with ease Comprehensive portfolio of mini sensors for ideal solutions For detecting end and reference positions, binary sensors ensure you of reliably simple position detection. With their compact sizes and low weight, our miniature series stands out from the many other options with its minimal space requirements and compatibility with moving actuators and slides. They are ideal, for example on grippers, gantry loaders or in pick-and-place applications, where every ounce of weight saved increases the energy efficiency of the system. Whether directly in...

SPINDLE FEED POSITIONING With BML magnetic encoder systems DETECT INDIVIDUAL POSITIONS With BES inductive sensors Block-style mini-sensors are ideal for end-of-travel sensing in the spindle drive. Their flat form factor fits in any design. They are also simple to install. Use inductive mini-sensors to detect end or reference positions in linear drives. They give you great freedom of design when laying out single- or multi-axis linear drives. Their small form factor lets you integrate them in locations that otherwise are too tight for sensors. MEASURE SLOW AND FAST SPEEDS With BML magnetic...

Digitizing the clamping process in the motor spindle Monitoring tool clamping distance Intelligent drive and clamping solutions where the sensors is integrated into the motor spindle are becoming increasingly common as an innovation driver on machine tools. The sensors needed for fast, smooth tool changes are available in ever smaller and more intelligent variations. These can be easily integrated into the clamping technology, regardless of whether it is activated electrically, hydraulically or pneumatically. With sensors and position measuring systems from Balluff you monitor the clamping...
