Proposal for replacement of Keyence Corporation's "VP-90".

マコメ研究所   (MACOME) マコメ研究所 (MACOME) 本社・伊那工場
Guide to Linear Encoders Due to the discontinuation of the Keyence "VP-90," Makome Laboratory is proposing replacement products. As a replacement for the Keyence "VP-90," Makome Laboratory recommends the magnetic linear encoder "SI-140" system. The "SI-140" system utilizes magnetism to measure a scale that is magnetized alternately and evenly with N and S poles, in a non-contact manner. Because it uses magnetism, it can measure lengths without being affected by non-magnetic materials. The head has a protection structure rated IP67 (compliant with IEC standards). The output is in A and B phase with a resolution of 0.1mm. When using an incremental measurement device with a 4x multiplier, it can be used at 0.025mm. The detection distance between the head and the scale is 4±3mm (1 to 7mm), allowing for some variation in distance. The output circuit is a MOS FET open-drain output, which can be extended up to 5m. Additionally, there is a separate line driver output type that can be extended up to 100m. *The MOS FET open-drain is almost equivalent to an NPN transistor output. Please contact us for evaluation samples.

Linear encoder (linear scale) SI-140 magnetic scale

Linear encoder, suitable for replacement from lightweight magnetic incremental scales such as optical types (VP-90 Easy Scale, etc.).

This is a non-contact incremental magnetic scale system that allows for a large distance between the head and the scale. It can measure length without being affected by dust or debris for magnetic detection. It features the smallest head among our magnetic detection scales. The detection head is compact, measuring 30mm in width and 32mm in height. By combining it with a dedicated scale, a compact length measurement system can be constructed. The large detection distance between the head and the scale, along with the tolerance for variations in detection distance, increases design flexibility. 【Features】 - Non-contact incremental scale system that allows for a large distance between the head and the scale. - Length measurement is possible without being affected by dust or debris for magnetic detection. It can detect through non-magnetic materials such as brass, aluminum, plastic, and stainless steel (e.g., SUS303). - Waterproof structure (IP-67), with proven applications in food processing machinery. *Sample loans available. *For more details, please contact us or download the catalog. CAD data is available. There are many successful replacements from discontinued optical encoders! *VP-90 Easy Scale.

SI-140PAC.jpg

Linear encoder package with 0.1mm display - video available

Ready to use right after purchase! Comes with a display, magnetic encoder "SI-140 Package" length measurement system, also for Kaizen proposals.

The SI-140PAC is a packaged linear encoder that comes with a display unit and can be used immediately with a power supply of AC100V. It is equipped with a standard 2-meter magnetic scale, which can be extended later (maximum length ∞). The counter display has a minimum display value of 0.1mm. You can easily measure with digital display where you previously used tape measures or gauges. Suitable for cutting aluminum and woodworking materials. Detection is non-contact. It has been widely adopted in in-house jigs (contributing to improvement proposals). Please also use it for DIY projects. Since it is magnetic, there are no miscounts due to dirt. Available on YouTube. *Sample lending is possible. *For more details, please contact us or download the PDF materials.

Start of operations at the new factory!

  • NEW
  • COMPANY

The time for celebration has come! The new production hall has started operations! While finishing work continues in other parts of the building, metal shavings are already being produced in the first machining center. Last Friday afternoon, employees and their families, along with companies involved in the construction, gathered to celebrate the achievements so far. Cold drinks, hot barbecue, and an ice cream stand were provided. During the celebration, many employees had the opportunity to tour the entire new building for the first time. Visitors were introduced to the new machines and improved logistics through guided tours of the production area. The new training room, the training center on the upper floor, and the latest conference room for customers were also unveiled. With this new building, Volkmann GmbH has secured an additional 4,500 square meters of production space. This expansion was very important, as the existing hall had already reached its limits due to the company's ongoing growth and increased production volume.

Best proposal for powder transfer (VOLKMANN) and metal detector (CEIA).

  • NEW
  • PRODUCT

▶Issue: Before further processing the powder in the next stage (such as packaging machines), it is necessary to inspect for the presence of metal foreign objects using a metal detector. To achieve high sensitivity, the powder needs to be inspected through free fall, but due to low ceiling height and operational inconvenience, it is not possible to install the metal detector in the next stage. ▶Solution: The CEIA metal detector will be installed under a Volkmann vacuum conveyor and on a Volkmann mobile lift. The height-adjustable lift will allow the product discharge outlet of the metal detector to be adjusted to the appropriate height for the mobile container. Additionally, the vacuum conveyor can be lowered to a height that allows the mobile lift to pass through doors. The powder will be transported, for example, from an IBC container to the mobile lift and then to the metal detector via vacuum transfer. Metal foreign objects will be sorted and collected in a separate bottle. The inspected powder will be collected in a mobile container. Another vacuum conveyor is installed for the next stage, such as the packaging machine, from which the powder will be drawn from this container. Inspection and separation of metal parts can be conducted very close to the next stage, and it is also possible in more distant production areas.

Eliminate steam troubles during powder input! Special module (air knife) manufactured by VOLKMANN JAPAN.

  • NEW
  • PRODUCT

The video shows that there is a tank at the bottom of the vacuum conveyor, and steam is constantly being released (in a simulated manner). If no measures are taken, the steam will enter the inside of the vacuum conveyor, condense into water droplets, and cause powder adhesion. Both our company and our customers have been troubled by such installations. This time, with the special module jointly developed with Minato Engineering Co., Ltd., we have succeeded in blocking the rising steam. From around the middle of the video, you can see that this function is turned on. You should be able to understand that the steam that was previously rising has disappeared. As a result, it has become possible to install equipment in a steam atmosphere, which was previously difficult to do, with peace of mind.
