Magnetic linear encoder from SIKO offers absolute position and speed data

ByMiles Budimir|April 14, 2022

The MSA213K high-resolution, non-contact absolute linear encoder from SIKO provides the absolute position at any time, without referencing or buffer battery. With its high signal quality, the encoder is ideal for use in handling and assembly automation, machining systems, pick-and-place applications, PCB machining and always provides precise values for position and speed measurement in linear direct drives.

The repeat accuracy achieved of ± 1 μm enables reliable use in multi-axis applications or positioning systems where exact control and position recognition is required. It achieves this performance level over a length of up to 16 m.

To make the MSA213K as easy to integrate as possible, it’s available with numerous absolute interfaces. Starting with the basic variants with SSI and BiSS C, the sensor is also available with IO-Link. An incremental interface is also available in parallel as a digital line driver or analog 1-Vss signal output. With this combination, absolute travel information is available at all times and precise commutation is possible even in dynamic operation.

The compact installation dimensions and a large reading distance of up to 0.8 mm, together with the 270° swiveling connector, enable flexible integration into a wide range of applications. For easy installation and operation, the absolute encoder has a clearly visible function and status indicator LED that provides feedback on function and operating status.
