Precise monitoring of the clamping stroke in tool spindles

Clamping stroke sensors reliably detect the displacement of rotating shafts

Micro-Epsilon's clamping stroke sensors ensure the perfect fit of the tool, optimize machining accuracy and protect both man and machine from possible damage.

The LVP-25-Z20 and LDR-14-Z20 sensors are the ideal solution for monitoring the tool position in high-performance spindles during the changing process. The innovative inductive measuring principle of these robust sensors ensures maximum reliability when monitoring the stroke movement of the drawbar. Consequently, continuous monitoring is possible without the switching point having to be set mechanically.

Innovative sensor technology for the highest demands

The LVP-25-Z20 and LDR-14-Z20 sensors measure the clamping stroke of the drawbar directly and provide a continuous signal for precise monitoring. While conventional systems rely on switching rings that require complex adjustment, Micro-Epsilon's clamping stroke sensors offer an easy solution without mechanical adjustment.

Flexible use - even under harsh conditions

Their robust design makes these sensors ideally suited for demanding industrial environments where high precision is required but conventional sensors reach their limits.
