Balluf's BML SGA series absolute magnetic encoder is, according to the company, the ideal candidate for any application requiring high-precision absolute position measurement or end-of-travel detection. A comprehensive set of diagnostic functions ensures reliable operation and easy maintenance. Thanks to its Drive-Cliq interface, the Balluff displacement measurement system integrates perfectly into environments using Siemens controllers. It is also Siemens-certified.
Plug-and-play installation facilitates integration into the axis controller. The controller automatically detects the sensor and its basic parameters. The sensor offers a high degree of functional flexibility, as it can be moved away from the coded ribbon, then resumed by simply bringing it closer to the ribbon. This opens up simple, cost-effective possibilities for demanding applications in automation and machine tool construction, especially for special machines.
The system uses a magnetic detection principle. It is totally insensitive to temperature variations, dirt (dust or grease) and wear. Thanks to its compact size, this measuring system is easy to integrate into existing applications, even where space is at a premium. Its generous reading distance (up to 1.3 mm) makes it easy to set up.
Measurements are continuously checked for consistency during operation, guaranteeing maximum reliability. Automatic monitoring of signal quality by the controller is a good way of assessing functional robustness.
LED status indicator and diagnostic functions ensure reliable operation and easy maintenance.
This linear measuring system is ideal for measuring large distances (up to 48 meters), as well as for applications requiring high accuracy. With an accuracy of up to ± 12 µ and a resolution of 1 µ, the system meets these needs. This displacement measurement system is also easy to retrofit.
