The SGA series has the BML absolute magnetic encoder in cases of need of end-of-travel and high absolute accuracy of position. It has holistic diagnostic functions to ensure efficient maintenance and reliable operation. It has a Drive-Cliq interface to integrate with Siemens Controller environments. Accordingly, Siemens has certified the system.
The BML has a plug-and-play installation. The controller automatically identifies the basic settings of the sensor. This sensor is highly flexible because leaving and re-engaging with the tape is permissible. This gives rise to simple, economical solutions for high-demand applications in automation and machine tool building.
The system works magnetically and is very insensitive to wear, oil, dust, and temperature change. The system can integrate into existing applications in tight-mounting conditions also. It has a generous read distance of 1.3 mm. So, the installation is easy.
High reliability is obtained by continuous plausibility. The signal quality is checked by automatic condition monitoring. Reliable operation and efficient maintenance is obtained by status LEDs and diagnostic functions.
The linear measuring system is suitable up to 48 meters and for high-precision applications. Its accuracy is up to 12 microns and the resolution is up to 1 micron. Retrofitting this system is very simple.
