New Compact Magnetic Discs from Balluff Offer Simple Integration

Small Form Factor Delivers High Precision for Tight Spaces

Balluff's new magnetic discs for use with absolute rotary magnetic encoders deliver high precision in an incredibly small form factor. That allows for use in tight spaces. They offer reliable, non-contact and wear free measuring.


Balluff offers a diverse portfolio of standardized flat and hub-shaped discs to match a variety of configurations. Inside diameters as small as 3 mm and up to 70 mm are available. Mechanical modifications can be created to meet specific application requirements.

Whether used with a complete system with sensor and electronics or integrated into a company's electronics with the IC-MU encoder chip, this wide range of compact magnetic discs leaves nothing to be desired when it comes to mechanical integration and accuracy.

Key features:

Non-contact and wear-free measuring principle
Generous distance between sensor and disc
Space-saving compact form factor
Various codings available (16/15, 31/31, 64/63)

Featured Product

Line Vac™ Family

Line Vac™ Family

A fast, low cost way to convey plastic pellets, scrap trim, textiles, bulk solids, food products, chips, paper, pills/tablets, small parts, shavings, sawdust and granules. EXAIR's compressed air operated Line Vac connects to standard hose or tube to create a powerful in-line conveyor. The compact design features large throat diameters for maximum throughput capability. Eleven sizes in aluminum and ten in stainless steel are suited to a wide variety of transfer applications. Line Vac conveyors are ideal for moving large volumes of material over long distances. A small amount of compressed air is injected through directed nozzles to produce a vacuum on one end and high output flows on the other, with instantaneous response. The material flow rate is easily controlled with a pressure regulator. No moving parts or electricity assures maintenance free operation. https://exair.co/184_564 See our Line Vac Promotion running now. http://www.exair.com/184/lvpromo.htm
