Magnescale Europe GmbH
About us
<b>Magnescale Co., Ltd. </b>, established in 1969, is a Japanese manufacturer of high precision measuring systems, pursuing technical innovation with a global perspective, which involves addressing problems facing the global environment.
Our goal is to develop better measuring devices and to work on systemization technologies to find solutions to the challenges our customers face.
Our products can be used for a wide range of applications:
Originated from tape recorder magnetic storage technology, our <b>Magnescale products</b> boast high resistance to environmental stresses and offer exceptional precision and high resolution.
These include our <b>digital gauges</b>, which can be used in various applications like in production lines with multiple measurement points, connecting to Profinet, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, Ethernet or RS232, but also for small measurements with a direct connection to PC using the USB port.
Our <b>rotary and linear Feedback encoder</b> are also based on this technology and are mainly used in machine tools. The magnetic principle prevents damage in harsh environment while utilizing high accuracy and resolution in the nanometer range.
Our <b>Laserscale encoders</b>, originating on optical disk-derived optoelectronics technologies, are mainly used in the semiconductor industry for high precision measurements in picometer range.
