ABOUT WIRE-DRAW LINEAR SCALE

Series overview

View full series

Wire-draw technology measures linear motion from 60 mm up to 4 meters; easy install and direct digital readout with a counter display.

The Wire-Draw Linear Scale family measures linear position by spooling a cable attached to the moving structure — no guide rails or precision alignment needed. MLA-17 (60 mm) and MLA-42 (2,000 / 4,000 mm) absolute models retain position through power loss; MLS-12 (250 mm) → MLS-50 (1,500 mm) incremental models offer high repeatability. With resolution down to 0.059 mm, they are ideal for hydraulic cylinder stroke monitoring, automatic door position, pick-and-place equipment, elevators and large-scale press applications. The compact return-spring housing fits even into tight spaces.
