Magnetic-tape encoder mounts to large shafts for speed and position monitoring
For speed and position monitoring on large diameter shafts, manufacturer Baumer introduces the HDMag line of high-precision, bearing-less, and contact-free magnetic tape encoders. Replacing expensive and complicated specialized solutions that require belts, gears, couplings, and linkages, the HDMag series of encoders is easy to install and will direct mount onto almost any large-shaft torque motor…
Stainless steel encoders
Sensor products deployed in harsh environments demand specific housing and sealing techniques as protection against prevailing adverse conditions. Typical applications include the offshore industry, chemical industry, and container ship loading facilities. Encoders installed there must withstand salty air, aggressive media and lubricants, oils and cleaning agents. Baumer offers a wide range of stainless steel encoder…
