The anodised aluminium housing and coated stainless-steel wire provide a robust industrial construction. It is suitable for automation, material handling and machine positioning systems.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The E61442 provides a 5000 mm measuring range for applications requiring longer linear displacement measurement. It converts linear wire movement into rotary movement for compatible encoders. This enables automated monitoring of machine position and travel. It is suitable for medium-to-long range measurement applications.
The housing is made from anodised aluminium, while the measuring wire is stainless steel with a polyamide coating. This combination provides a durable and practical construction for industrial environments. The coated wire also helps reduce maintenance requirements. The design supports reliable repeated movement.
The draw-wire mechanism can be integrated with compatible encoders to provide position feedback. It is suitable for monitoring the movement of machine components over longer distances. This supports automated control and measurement functions. Correct encoder and mechanical compatibility should be confirmed before installation.
The E61442 is designed to handle continuous wire movement in suitable industrial machinery. Its mechanical characteristics support applications involving controlled acceleration and extension forces. The design is suitable for dynamic automation equipment.
