First select a product category. Here you can choose between linear encoders, angle encoders or length gauges.
Select the accuracy of the incremental length gauge that meets your requirements. You can choose between two accuracy classes, SPECTO for ±1 µm or METRO for ±0.5 µm.
The position detection can be incremental or absolute. The incremental measuring method provides a relative position as well as direction of movement, which requires an assignment to a reference point (starting point) at the beginning of the measurement. This is done by homing the axis. The absolute measuring method provides concrete position information at any axis position. A reference run at the beginning of the measurement is not necessary.
At this point you can select the type of bolt actuation. You can choose between two variants, spring-driven or pneumatic. With spring-driven length gauges, the built-in spring extends the measuring bolt into the measuring position and builds up the measuring force. The measuring bolt is extended in the rest position. On length gauges with pneumatic bolt actuation, the bolt extends when compressed air is applied. When the compressed air connection is vented, the built-in spring retracts the measuring bolt.

A wide range of variants
The wide range of variants of the new length gauge generation offers the user a broad spectrum of possible applications. The probes are suitable for production metrology and for multi-point measuring stations as well as for monitoring measuring equipment and as position measuring devices.
Thus, the length gauges can be selected not only in different measuring lengths and connection variants, but also the type of bolt actuation, the interface as well as the accuracy.

A novel sensor layout in combination with a newly developed measuring standard ensure excellent signal quality. Extremely sophisticated electronics ensure highly accurate measurement results over the entire gauge length.
The ultra-slim design of the length gauges results in a greatly reduced row width. This extends the scope of applications for the user.
A high degree of robustness and durability is achieved through well-matched components and a high degree of in-house production.
