Variohm, Roll feed and winding web length measurement made easy

Extensively proven over several years for precise measurement of web length, position and speed in numerous roll winding and web-based machinery applications, Wachendorff's LMS range of length measurement systems includes a novel spring-loaded arm design that facilitates straightforward mounting, fast pressure adjustment, and suitability for use with any surface material. Available with comprehensive support from Variohm EuroSensor, Wachendorff's exclusive UK distributor, the LMSMA series is based on the German manufacturer's rugged industrial incremental or absolute rotary encoders for a linear positioning resolution from 1 millimetre to 8 microns per pulse.

Available in four standard design options, each offered with a choice of four incremental encoder resolutions to suit the linear positioning requirements, the LMSMA features a choice of 200 mm or 500 mm length measuring wheels. The encoder/wheel assembly is mounted on the special spring-loaded arm and may be mounted on the customer's machine using its integral base-plate or alternatively mounted via a pre-assembled anodised aluminium angle-bracket - both options are designed for use with commonly available profile rail systems.
