Overview
The robust RLS magnetic scales consist of a stainless steel carrier and an elastomer-bonded ferrite. The elasto-ferrite layer is magnetised with 2 mm, 2.032 mm or 5 mm long alternating magnetic poles that form an incremental magnetic pattern. Custom magnetisation is also possible.
Features
- Compatible with incremental RLS readheads
- Four accuracy grades available:
±10 μm/m, ±20 μm/m, ±40 μm/m, ±100 μm/m - Partial arc application possibility
- Optional protective cover foil for heavy duty applications
- Up to 150 m length
Benefits
- Customer selectable position of reference mark
- Excellent resistance to dirt, dust and humidity
- Easy installation with adhesive tape, end clamps or track section
