Accurate linear position detection

Balluff's new BIP linear inductive positioning system has an absolute measuring principle for the position monitoring of applications such as drive spindles and clamping devices for tools and workpieces.

The sensor can also be used for many other mechanical engineering tasks with linear motion such as punch depth, grab positions, rolling positions, valve positions, etc. The BIP is non-contact, linear travel of up to 40mm can be reliably detected. It also has a resolution of 14 microns. T: 0161 282 4700 E: sales@balluff.co.uk
