Capture linear motion rotationally
Measuring wheel systems from Kübler are the ideal solution for reliable speed, position and distance measurement in applications with linear movements. These are recorded rotationally via the measuring wheel with attached encoder directly on the surface of the material to be measured and converted into linear data.
The MWE41 measuring wheel system with internal springs can be quickly and easily integrated into many applications.
Benefits
Simple and safe mounting
Measuring wheel system with internal springs to protect against unwanted influences for and by the springs. Encoder can be mounted in 30° increments on the spring angle.
Wide range of encoders
Incremental Sendix encoders with a max. resolution of up to 36,000 pulses/revolution as well as absolute encoders for different communication interfaces such as IO-Link or Profinet for integration into Industry 4.0 concepts.
Suitable measuring wheels for all measuring surfaces
Circumference 300 mm - Measuring wheel lining available with O-ring or double O-ring, smooth or knurled plastic, cross-knurled surface and knobs.
Contact pressure up to max. 25 N
The internal springs provide a working range of the measuring wheel of up to 10 mm perpendicular to the measuring surface to compensate for tolerances.
