MSI 593 Heavy Duty Encoder

Optical scanning enable accurate, high-resolution measurement with high repeatability, often used with excellent results in many industrial applications. 

However, by nature, optical scanning is not always unaffected by pollution, making the encapsulation a critical part of such product designs. 

Violent shocks or severe vibration may risk affecting the code disc, for example if the encoder is dropped during installation, which can be avoided by alternative scanning technologies.

The use of inductive scanning enables us to create an encoder suited also for such extreme occasions. 

In any disturbing environment, improper handling or even when bad luck strikes, at least you can enjoy the silence from these MSI 5-series type of encoders as they keep on delivering measurement data, unaffected by dirt, vibration or “bad handling”.

The MSI 5-series of encoders are compliant with many of the standardized electrical and mechanical encoder interfaces available on the industrial automation market today.
