Compact measuring wheel encoder MWS075 - SICK

The MWS075 measuring wheel encoder from SICK precisely measures dynamic linear surface movements using direct contact. It is customizable and supports all available encoder interfaces and measuring wheel interfaces, thereby allowing it to be seamlessly integrated into the application environment. The intelligent design combines compactness with flexibility and measurement accuracy. A manually adjustable contact pressure ensures precise and repeatable measurements of speed and position. The rugged spring arm has a spring travel of ± 5 mm and a maximum contact pressure of 15 N. The patented spring travel limiter protects the MWS075 from overload. The measuring wheel encoder enables accurate measurement results, system longevity, and reliability in a variety of industrial sectors.
