Integrated measuring system for absolute distance measurement system Type AMSABS 3L for long axes

After installation, the absolute position is immediately available once the read head is mounted.

When replacing read heads, there may be minimal deviations of a few tenths of a millimeter. To achieve more precise values, adjustments to the control parameters should be made.

Precise alignment of the read head is not required, as it only needs to be secured with the screws provided.

The periodic measurement deviation is less than 0.6 µm.

When the machine is stationary, the battery lasts about 2.5 years. In single-shift operation, the lifespan is approximately 5 years, while in three-shift operation, when only needed on weekends, the battery lasts around 8 years.

The AMSABS scale is well-protected within the rail, so external fields are neutralized by the rail and surrounding materials, having no impact on the scale.

To ensure that magnetic fluxes from tools or chip nests do not interfere with the scale, the scale is mounted on the side opposite to the linear motor.

AMSABS rails should not be installed using magnetic lifting tools to avoid residual magnetism in the rail.

All components of the MONORAIL MR and MONORAIL BM can be used with the AMSABS system; however, sheet metal wipers are not available in the standard program.
