MPS

Opkon

Part no.: MPS

Key Features

• Measuring range 150 - 2000 mm

• 5 µm resolution (4x mode) as standard

• Adjustable reference

• +/- 15 µm accuracy

Opkon MPS linear scales are commonly found in press brakes and other applications. As an alternative for Givi Misure GVS 215 and Heidenhain LC400, LS400 and LF485 series sensors, the MPS combines high accuracy, resolution and reliability in an affordable package.

Potentiometers That Make Sense for Sensing

Despite their perceived simplicity, potentiometers can still be an appropriate option in today’s ever-complicated automation industry. Fundamentally a variable resistor, modern potentiometers also offer more traditional outputs such as voltage and current which are common to more expensive sensors.

SSI Encoder

Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) is a widely used serial interface standard for industrial applications between a master (i.g. controller) and a slave (i.g. sensor).

Redundant Encoder Options

In the world of rotary encoders, modern non-contact sensing technologies and high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) specifications are standard. However, in critical applications, redundant sensors are still a necessity. When selecting a solution, several criteria need to be considered, and fortunately, various options are available to simplify the task. Understanding Redundancy in Encoders The […]
