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 compact MWE31 measuring wheel system with internal springs can be quickly and easily integrated into even the tightest installation spaces.
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 at the spring angle in 30° steps
Wide range of encoders
Incremental Sendix encoders with a max. resolution of up to 2500 pulses/revolution as well as absolute encoders for different communication interfaces such as IO-Link for integration in Industry 4.0 concepts.
Suitable measuring wheels for all measuring surfaces
Circumference 200 mm - Measuring wheel lining available with O-ring, smooth plastic or cross-knurled surface.
Contact pressure up to max. 15 N
The internal springs ensure a working range of the measuring wheel of up to 10 mm perpendicular to the measuring surface to compensate for tolerances.
