Sony SL220-126 Electromagnetic Scale 130 Inch

Product Description

The SONY SL220-126 is an electromagnetic linear scale designed for high-precision measurement applications in industrial and metrology environments. It delivers a resolution of 0.0005 inches, making it suitable for machine tool feedback, coordinate measuring machines, and precision positioning systems. The scale length is 130 inches, accommodating large-travel measurement needs. Accuracy is rated at 25+5L per 1,000 meters, a specification that reflects the cumulative and length-dependent error budget typical of high-grade linear encoders. Installation is performed by qualified metrology or machine tool technicians.

This electromagnetic scale is intended for use in precision manufacturing and industrial measurement settings where linear position feedback is required over extended travel distances. Typical applications include large-format CNC machine tools, grinding machines, milling centers, and coordinate measuring equipment that require consistent, high-resolution positional data across the full 130-inch travel range. It is packaged as a single unit per order.

Key Features

• Resolution of 0.0005 inches for fine positional feedback
• 130-inch scale length supports extended-travel machine axes
• Accuracy specification of 25+5L per 1,000 meters for predictable error budgeting
• Electromagnetic scale type for reliable signal output in industrial environments
• Single-unit packaging with a minimum order quantity of one

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style linear scale for industrial machine tools and precision measurement equipment requiring electromagnetic linear encoder feedback at 130-inch travel length.

Installation Notes

Installation of linear scales should be performed by qualified machine tool technicians or metrology specialists familiar with encoder alignment and mounting procedures. Power down all machine axes and disable servo drives before mounting or connecting the scale. Proper parallelism between the scale and the read head is critical to achieving rated accuracy across the full travel range. Follow the machine manufacturer and applicable industrial safety guidelines during installation.
