4�1�1�1� Mounting - 2 Sensors on the Tie Bar
Please refer to "2�1� Sensor Handling and Installation" on page 10 for instructions on how to install the
QE2008-W sensors on any ferromagnetic surface.
For this measurement, each of the 4 tie bars of the machine must have 2 QE2008-W sensors placed 180° apart from
each other, at the same longitudinal position of the tie bar.
Procedure
• Choose one pair of QE2008-W sensors.
• Select one of the 4 tie bars of the machine to mount
the chosen sensors on.
• Mount one sensor on the tie bar, placing it away from
the clamping platen at least at a distance equal to the
tie bar diameter. For an optimal measurement, it is
reccomended to position the sensor with the power
button facing the center of the mold, if the space
allows it.
• Mount the second sensor at 180° from the first.
Make sure that the external edges of the sensors are
aligned. This type of mounting allows compensation of
bendings.
16 / 56
- The sensors must be positioned parallel to the tie bar!
- The 2nd sensor must be placed exactly opposite (180°) and
parallel to the 1st sensor!
- Mount the sensors when there is no load applied (e�g� no
force applied on the object / mold open)
