Magnetic transducers operate on a magnetic principle basis. In these models, the slider contains a magnet and reacts with a polarised magnetic band. The advantage of this system is that it has no electrical contact on the slider, which limits fretting wear whilst offering greater precision and speed. Furthermore, magnetic systems are less sensitive to dirt than optical systems, hence they are more suitable for applications in industrial environments in which processing results in the presence of dust or oils.

Lineartransducer Working principle

NEXUS, VEGA and NEOS, Elap comprehensive series of multi-function controllers are designed to make the programming operations and work cycle control easy.

Incremental linear transducers are usually employed on industrial operating machines. Combined to counting, visualizing and control systems they allow to achieve programmed positionings, pre-determined step shifts and to display length or thickness measures.

Linear transducers with optical scales use optical sensors or photodiodes that read the high-precision graduated notches on a rectilinear guide, measuring the length of the movement performed on this basis. The optical encoder strips are typically used on machine tools.

Light sourcesLucide also offers you a complete range within the light sources. Of course we specialize in LED lamps, because of the demand for energy-sufficient and efficient lighting. Truly unique and distinctive is our assortment of dimmable vintage LED filament bulbs.Take a look at our website and be inspired!We hope that you too can appreciate our brand and our passion for light.The Lucide team"ILLUMINATES YOUR WORLD"

ELAP counters and readouts solve all the problems related to counting and displaying lengths or tickness measures and machined pieces numbers.

Linear incremental transducers are devices that detect the position and displacement of a mechanical movement in a straight line. Their operative principle is thus similar to the one of incremental rotary encoders but where those read a circular scale of reference, these operate on a straight-line graduated scale. Incremental linear transducers based on various technologies are available: magnetic, digital and optical scales.

And, before we forget to mention it! Also take a look at the unique range of children's lighting and bathroom lighting.Outdoor lightingOutdoor living is becoming increasingly important. Where we used to consider our house and garden as separated from each other, we now combine and match them. Lucide has completely adjusted its collection to this trend! The Lucide range is surprising and distinctive. We invite you to take a closer look at our outdoor lighting and get inspired. All the designs are characterised by the unique Lucide "touch".

In addition to a series of widely-used standard models, ELAP develops and produces tailored linear incremental transducers, made to measure displacements in the customer’s specific industrial processes. Thanks to the extremely vast possibility of configuration and calibration of our instruments and to our internal design studio, ELAP products can be tailored to any specific need you may have.

The optical linear scales series KP are accurate and reliable. Thanks to their compact dimensions they can be applied even on small-sized machine tools (millers, lathes, grinders, spark erosion machines…).

All linear transducers mentioned here are incremental, that is they measure a series of displacements and not an absolute position.

The incremental linear transducers in the PD-PE series operate on the basis of the optical principle of reading a graduated scale, similar to optical encoder strips. In PD/PE transducers, rather, the reading head and measurement scale are contained in a sturdy aluminium casing that protects against environmental agents and makes assembly especially practical—the transducer structure is actually fixed to the machinery via bracket fasteners or ball joints placed at the ends. The precision of the reading, the simplicity of assembly and the wide choice of measurement (from 60 to 990 mm) make this type of transducer suitable for all applications in which it is necessary to measure a linear shift.
