Wire absolute encoder WDS

Product Description

Wire transducers series WDS are composed by the draw-wire mechanics coupled to Elap multiturn absolute high-resolution encoder MEM-BUS or MEM. They can provide different communication protocols – IO-Link, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET, Profibus, CANopen or SSI output signal. The transducers combine standard draw-wire functionality with the enhanced interconnectivity, safety, precision, and data transmission speed provided by the encoders protocol.

The encoder grants high resolutions values (28 or 29 bit) and strokes ranging from 3000 to 15000 mm.

The transducer housing is out of aluminium, whilst the wire consists of coated poliamide stainless steel.
