What is TRS track system?

Designed for applications which demand that the scale be removed easily, the track system consists of aluminium guide rails available in 1 m and 2 m sections, a scale clamp and joining element. It securely retains the magnetic scale whilst allowing it to expand and contract freely.

LinACE™ with digital outputs vs. LVDT sensor

LinACE™ has a similar design to LVDT transducers. However, it is not an LVDT type transducer.

Magnetoresistive effect

A magnetoresistive sensor consists of a resistor made of magnetically sensitive alloy strips such as nickel iron (NiFe).

Singleturn vs. Multiturn

For rotary encoders, the terms singleturn and multiturn are used.

LinACE™ vs. magnetostrictive encoders with SSI output

LinACE™ has a similar design to magnetostrictive transducers. However, it is not an magnetostrictive type transducer.
