Encoder Technology CMT Non contact magnetic linear encoder
Features
- Type: Non-contact magnetic linear encoder (measures displacement without physical contact)
- Measuring length: Up to 50 meters
- Function: Converts linear movements of machine components into electrical signals with information about:
- Value: Distance travelled
- Direction: Forward or backward movement
- Durability: Designed for harsh industrial environments and resistant to various contaminants and physical impacts.
- Components:
- Metal-based magnetic band (MP): Stores the encoded information
- Reading head: Detects the magnetic field variations on the band and converts them into electrical signals
- Profile rail (PS) with protective band: Provides mounting and protects the reading head

The encoder could be supplied with an external zero signal actuator (magnet), which allows the usage of one of many reference marks made on magnetic bands. A zero signal actuator is not necessary if the magnetic band with reference marks made according to customer requirements (MP200Z) is used. The reading head has an LED, which indicates the reference mark passage by the head.
Two versions of output signals are available:
- CMT-F – Square-wave signals, with integrated subdividing electronics for interpolation.
- CMT-AV – Sinusoidal signals, with amplitude approx. 1 Vpp, which requires external subdividing electronics.
A non-contact magnetic linear encoder CMT has a measuring length of up to 50 m.
The encoder is used to convert linear displacements of key machine components into electrical signals containing information about the value and direction of the displacement.
The encoder is intended to be used in particular heavy conditions. It is protected against products of technological processes and mechanical actions.
The encoder consists of a metal-based magnetic band MP, reading head and profile rail PS with a protective band. The length of the magnetic band could be up to 50 m.
