Rope-type displacement sensor for synchronous up/down control application

The rope displacement sensor has been proven to be a practical solution in the long-distance measurement field. By pulling in and out steel wire rope, the rope encoder converts linear motion into rotational motion. Depending on the specific application, these rotational movements can be used as drivers for incremental or value encoders, and displayed via digital displays or controllers. The main advantages of the rope encoder are its wide application, easy installation, reliable performance in extreme environments, and clear functional principle.

The pull绳encoder is nearly applicable to all industrial fields. Of course, it is mainly used for positioning of hoisting equipment, cranes, drilling machines, excavators, and conveying systems. However, it may also find more uses in areas such as injection molding machines, stamping presses, presses, test benches, stages, and sluices. Outdoor applications are not an issue either; if necessary, the pull绳encoder can be routed and used in liquids or under high-temperature conditions. When used in conjunction with incremental or value encoders, it becomes an efficient and cost-effective measurement system that fully meets the requirements of the relevant applications. The pull绳encoder can be combined with different encoders, thus even utilizing field buses. Various designs ensure the rated linearity over approximately 5 million strokes of service life.
