Vision sensor promises photoelectric ease
The Inspector's rugged IP67-protected metal housing ensures it can withstand harsh industrial and production line environments, for quality assurance inspection in any location or orientation.
Incremental encoders provide smooth running
Bearings are separated as widely as possible within the encoder body, to achieve smooth and vibration-free running.
Both the Sick and Stegmann brands have a worldwide reputation as high- performance, quality sensing components for use in factory automation and now Erwin Sick is responsible for the sales of Sick-Stegmann industrial rotary and linear encoders.
For users of sensors and encoders in Sick's strategic market of factory automation, the integration of the Sick-Stegmann industrial encoders into Erwin Sick's product range offers the customer all the benefits of one stop shopping.
This includes reducing customers supplier databases and costs associated with dealing with a large number of suppliers.
The Sick-Stegmann range includes incremental, bus and absolute encoders and high accuracy, noncontact length measurement systems.
These are complimentary to the existing Erwin Sick ranges of optical, inductive, magnetic and capacitive sensors for industrial applications.
The new ranges have applications in industries that include packaging machinery, handling technology and robotics, automotive manufacture, storage and conveyors, electronics and semiconductors.
Stegmann UK will continue to market a full range of synchronous motors, gearmotors, Valeo geared motors and Gysin gearboxes, as well as Sick-Stegmann Hiperface motor feedback encoders.
