Elesa revolutionises magnetic measuring systems

Elesa has widened its range of magnetic systems for linear or angular displacement by introducing a version with radio frequency data transmission. The company says the new MPI-R10-RF measuring system connected to FC-MPI sensor and combined with M-BAND-10 magnetic band is characterised by an extremely easy assembly and disassembly of the device from the panel due to a system with retaining clip. There is no requirement for the use of screws. The numerous features of the display allow for easy setting and adaptability to different measuring and cutting machines.

FC-MPI magnetic sensor is available in different lengths. Its snap-in assembly facilitates the mounting to the display. The sensor, moving along M-BAND magnetic band, allows precise alignment and positioning, reducing time and machining procedures to the minimum.

MPI-R10-RF can communicate via radio frequency (RF) with UC-RF control unit, constituting a wireless system for the rapid positioning of machine parts or multi-axial measurements. Therefore, it does not require the use of expensive cables between the various indicators and the control unit.

UC-RF control unit is provided with a standard interface for the most common industrial buses to be connected to the PLC and exchanges information with up to 36 MPI-R10-RF, allowing the view of the various target positions on each display and at the same time also on the PLC, ensuring complete control of all machine positions.
