STL/ETL70 Linear Motor Feedback System

Brand: Sick AG

Precision, speed, dynamics, and high stiffness – it is exactly these properties that play a significant role in modern applications in drive technology. The STL/ETL70 motor feedback system fulfills all these properties with the help of the HIPERFACE® or HIPERFACE DSL® interface. 

The magnetic principle of operation, the long measuring length of up to 16 m, and the high resolution open up a broad range of application possibilities for absolute position detection. Integrated into the motor feedback system are the latest sensor and analysis technology. 

Thanks to HIPERFACE DSL®, the ETL70 is the world’s first linear motor feedback system with one cable technology.

At a glance
  • Absolute measurement system for linear direct drives
  • Measuring lengths: up to 16,384 mm
  • High traversing speeds: up to 10 m/s
  • Status LED
  • Non-contact measurement system; reading distance to the magnetic tape: up to 0.8 mm
  • Electronic type label
  • ETL70 with one cable technology thanks to the HIPERFACE DSL® interface
  • STL70 with HIPERFACE® interface
Features
  • STL/ETL70 requires no reference run and is therefore immediately ready for operation again after being switched off
  • Easy to mount thanks to a status LED that indicates the optimal mounting position of the motor feedback system
  • Can be installed in almost any orientation by rotating the M12 male connector
  • Maintenance-free due to non-contact measurement principle, therefore no machine downtimes due to wear and tear
  • Simple integration of the system thanks to the HIPERFACE® or HIPERFACE DSL® interface
  • High availability compared to optical systems – even with dust, contamination and moisture
