MACOME CORPORATION List of Products and Services

"MP-620 Series" Linear Displacement Sensor Utilizing multiple uniquely developed detection elements called "saturable coils," it detects the relative position to the detection body (magnet) non-contactly and provides linear output (voltage/current). Since each detection element captures the positional changes of the detection body (magnet), disturbances in output due to vibration or shock are almost nonexistent. The sensor part and the detection body are completely separated (8mm ± 2mm), preventing the generation of wear particles from contact. It is also suitable for absolute position detection of magnets embedded in oil pneumatic cylinders, etc. (Absolute). Ideal for measuring displacement in robotic arms and similar applications. 【Main Features】 ■ Power supply voltage DC +24V ■ Output MP-620 (voltage output 1-5V) MP-621 (current output 4-20mA) ■ Effective length 100mm to 800mm * Please consult for lengths over 800mm (maximum support up to 1600mm) ■ Repetition accuracy within 0.1mm ■ Capable of detecting various magnets compared to our conventional linear displacement sensors * Adjustments may be necessary. ■ Compared to our sleeve sensors, it has very little dead space and is compact. * There is also a small type MP-4731 with a 15mm stroke.

The detection body consists of two components: a "sleeve" and a "probe" for the detection part. A high-frequency magnetic field is generated on the probe side, creating electromagnetic induction coupling between the sleeve and the probe. When the sleeve displaces relative to the probe, changes occur in the electromagnetic induction coupling, and this change is converted into voltage output (the relative position of the sleeve and probe is output as a displacement amount in a voltage range of 1-5V). Since the sleeve and probe have a completely non-contact structure, there is no deformation or failure due to friction. We also accept various customizations such as mounting brackets and connectors. Please feel free to consult us. 【Main Features】 ■ Two models available: the integrated detector 'ET-850' and the separated type 'ET-851A' ■ The probe is made of stainless steel, ensuring both robustness and durability ■ The protective structure complies with IP-67, providing high dust and waterproof performance ■ Power supply voltage: DC 10-30V *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

There are various detection elements such as reed switches, Hall elements, MR elements, and TMR elements, but our company utilizes a unique "saturable coil" for sensing. Since the outputs are generated individually for the N and S poles, the range of applications expands depending on the combination of magnets used. By selecting the appropriate magnets, the detection distance can be extended to over 100mm. It can detect magnets underground. Depending on the application, it can also sense within the soil of golf courses, baseball fields, and various sports venues. For example, if the S pole is detected for positioning, it can decelerate, and if the N pole is detected, it can stop. Normally, it operates under N pole control, and if the S pole is detected, it can perform an unconditional emergency stop with a single switch. By using N and S magnets on tags, binary codes can be created, which can also be utilized for sorting tasks. Since it detects the magnetic field generated by the magnets, it is not affected by dirt or dust. Sample lending is available. Magnet polarity discrimination, non-contact detection, from manufacturing lines to inspection jigs, it can be used in various situations. Custom options, such as a fully submerged type, are also available while maintaining the electrical specifications.
