Linear wire encoder

Linear wire encoders are one such device that offers the required precision and accurate position measurement in assorted industries. Acting as sensors of which electrical signals are generated to detect SOP linear displacement devices determine through seeing relative movement from a reference point established and an object. In this article, we will take a tour of linear wire encoders including concept, working principle, features and benefits along with applications.


Linear Wire Encoder Basics

Linear Wire Encoders: An optimization of a wire with upgraded tensile strength means the measuring head is now mechanically optimized. When displacement occurs in the object being measured, this measuring head slides along the wire. The UP Ultimate Test Wire features a precision spring-loaded roller that remains in contact with the wire at all times which ensures accurate and consistent readings. One side of the wire is cement to a moving object and an opposite end has concrete plant into a fixed point

 

The measuring head thus moves in the direction of movement of the object through means that will be described next, generating electrical signals from its travel on account of wire. A digital readout interprets these signals to give the linear displacement of an object In simple terms, the operation of a SOP linear potentiometer sensor would be similar to tape measure where if you pull out your measuring tape then will have increased length and position is determined by looking at marking on it.
