KA800M Magnetic Scale Safety Precautions This manual is designed for technicians concerning installation and commissioning. Please read this manual carefully before use. Unauthorized modification and operation will invalidate the warranty. 1.1 Applications KA800M Magnetic Scale is a linear displacement sensor designed with a theoretical measuring length of up to 100m.
KA800M Magnetic Scale Features and Specifications KA800M magnetic scale is a non-contact displacement measurement system, using detection of magnetic signals, which features: High precision of up to ± 10µm / 300mm or ± 20µm / 1000mm, Measurement length of up to 3–100m, Low sensitivity to impact, vibration and contamination (e.g.
KA800M Magnetic Scale Structure KA800M magnetic scale mainly consists of the body and the reading head. The body consists of the head section, the standard section and the end section (Fig. 4.1). Only one head and end sections are provided, and the quantity of standard sections may vary as the measuring length changes.
KA800M Magnetic Scale Installation 5.1 Priority of installation: (1) To install the magnetic scale, the scale shall be kept parallel with the lathe guide rail. (2) The center of the measuring range of magnetic scale shall be located at the center of the lathe travel.
KA800M Magnetic Scale Installation 5.2 Fine reference installation Steps of installation: (1) Machining reference face: Select a suitable place for installation and installation reference face. The installation reference face shall be machined to a roughness of Ra6.3. Drill M6 screw holes on the installation reference face with intervals and dimensions as shown in Fig.

KA800M Magnetic Scale Installation (6) Installation of read head: Put the sealing strip through the Ф4 hole, with the toothed edge upwards (Fig. 5.8). Install the connection base symmetrically on both sides of the read head, with the base closely placed to the both contact face as shown in Fig. 5.9. Fix the read head to the scale casing with a jig as shown in Figs.

KA800M Magnetic Scale Installation If 700≤X≤1800, X=L and n=0. e.g. if the effective measuring length L of the magnetic scale is 9000mm X=L0-2240=9000-2240=6760 X=6760≥1900, L= X-n×1200, 700≤L≤1800 ∵ L=6760 -n×1200, 700≤L≤1800 , L=760mm ∴ The quantity of brackets is n+4=9. Steps of coarse reference installation: (1) Installation of bracket: Drill M6 screw holes to install a bracket.
