We have developed the tape-type Linear MP Scale "MPFA series" that takes over the conventional electromagnetic coupling and detects the linear axis with high accuracy without contact.

Linear Feedback Detector(Tape type Scale for Factory Automation)

Inherited features

High resolution・High speed

High resolution High speed
0.1μm・30m/sec

Direct detection

Full-closed
Most suitable for full-closed control using linear motor.
Direct detection

Stable high accuracy lasted for a long period

Stable high accuracy lasted for a long period
Scale will last for years without any deterioration in accuracy because of its non-physical contact design that eliminates any bearing or spring.

Excellent environmental resistance

No Air Purge
Due to electromagnetic induction, the position can be detected without the affect by oil stains on the pattern.
