Compact wire-actuated encoder for basic applications

Wire-actuated encoders are often a cost-effective solution for recording linear paths for measuring tasks in apparatus and mechanical engineering. The cable drum of the new CMW36 has a small size of 55 mm and can fit into even narrow installation spaces. In contrast to multiturn potentiometers, position detection in mounted encoders is wear-free. Even repeated positioning between two points is continuously possible without any problem; the fine movements around the target position of an active controller cannot affect the measuring system. 1250 mm, which are output via SSI interface or DRIVE-CLiQ, are measured. TR's proven multiturn scanning functionality, which detects the true position over the entire measuring range without a battery, operates inside the device. TR's wire-actuated encoders are delivered as completely mounted and adjusted units, comprising cable drum and the absolute encoder. CMW36 supplements the wide range of wire-actuated encoders from TR-Electronic with a compact absolute measuring system, which is suitable for apparatus and light mechanical engineering as well as for auxiliary functions in mechanical and plant engineering.
