E Series magnetic linear encoders from
Admotec Inc., Lebanon, NH, combine a magnetoresistive sensor and self-adhesive SS-backed magnetic tape. The sensor's built-in resolution-enhancing interpolator lets you choose resolutions from 0.5 to 200 µm/edge. Sensors are supplied in a CE-approved IP67-rated aluminum housing with a SS bottom; 2 adjustable wipers at each end of the sensor provide light cleaning as the sensor moves. Applications include textile, woodworking, packaging, plastics, machine tools, marking, paper, and industrial automation measurement and feedback.
