Flexible Multi-Axis Measurement, Data Acquisition and Process Monitoring

The Magnescale LT80 is a powerful modular measurement platform designed for manufacturers requiring accurate dimensional inspection, automated quality control and real-time process monitoring. Combining the LT80 touchscreen display with MG80 series interface, counter and latch modules, the system provides a scalable solution for collecting, analysing and managing measurement data from multiple gauges and encoders.

Supporting up to 32 measurement channels, the LT80 system is ideal for production environments where multiple dimensions must be monitored simultaneously. Built-in comparator functions, flexible data storage options and Ethernet connectivity make it suitable for both standalone inspection stations and fully integrated automated manufacturing systems.

Key features

7-Inch Touchscreen Display: The LT80-NE display unit features a high-resolution LCD with intuitive touch controls, allowing users to easily configure and monitor measurements across multiple axes.
Expandable Architecture: The MG80 series supports modular expansion with interface (MG80-MA), counter (MG80-CM), and latch (MG80-LM) modules, enabling tailored configurations for specific application needs.
Versatile Measurement Modes: Supports current value, MIN, MAX, Peak-to-Peak, ADD/SUB, and more, making it suitable for a wide range of inspection and quality control tasks.
Advanced Comparator Functions: Built-in 2 or 4-state comparator functions allow for part sorting, tolerance judgment, and defect detection.
Flexible Data Management: Measurement data can be stored and exported via SD card, USB, or Ethernet, ensuring seamless integration with existing data systems.
Multilingual support (Japanese, English, German)

Applications

This system is ideal for:

Precision Manufacturing: Real-time monitoring and control of dimensional tolerances.
Automated Inspection Systems: Integration with PLCs and other automation equipment.
Research and Development: High-speed data acquisition for experimental setups.

Connectivity and Integration

The MG80 modules support DIN rail mounting and are compatible with DK- and DT-series gauges via MT adaptors. The system also supports A/B quadrature encoder signals for synchronized angle and position measurements, making it suitable for rotary and linear encoder applications.

A Complete Modular Measurement Platform

Unlike conventional gauge displays, the LT80 is designed as a complete measurement and data acquisition system.

The platform consists of several modules that can be combined to suit the application’s requirements:

LT80-NE Display Unit

The LT80 provides a large 7-inch touchscreen interface for displaying measurement values, monitoring system status and configuring measurement parameters. Operators can view 2, 4, 8 or 16 channels simultaneously while accessing comparator settings, measurement modes and system diagnostics.

Display: 7-inch TFT LCD touchscreen (800 × 480 resolution)
Measurement Channels: Supports 2, 4, 8, or 16 axes per display
Data Storage: SD card, USB memory, or Ethernet
Languages: Multilingual support including English, Japanese, and German
Power Supply: 24 VDC ±10%
Interface: Ethernet, USB, RS-232C (optional)

MG80-MA Main Interface Module

The MG80-MA acts as the communication hub for connected measurement devices. Multiple modules can be linked together to expand the system and support large-scale inspection applications.

Model Variants: MG80-MA1 (NPN), MG80-MA2 (PNP)
Gauge Connectivity: Up to 8 gauges per module
Max System Configuration: Up to 4 MG80-MA modules (32 gauges total)
Mounting: DIN rail
Communication: Proprietary LINK interface to LT80

MG80-CM Counter Module

The MG80-CM enables connection of Magnescale DK and DT Series gauges, providing accurate multi-channel measurement acquisition for dimensional inspection and quality control applications.

Function: High-speed counting of encoder pulses
Input Signal: A/B quadrature encoder (EIA-422 compliant)
Max Count Frequency: 10 MHz
Resolution: Configurable via software
Use Case: Ideal for linear and rotary encoder-based measurements

MG80-LM High-Speed Latch Module

The optional MG80-LM module allows synchronised data capture using rotary or linear encoder signals. This makes it possible to record measurements at specific positions or angles during movement, ideal for advanced inspection and profile measurement applications.

Function: Captures measurement data at specific encoder positions
Trigger Source: Encoder angle or distance
Max Latch Channels: Up to 16 axes
Synchronization: Real-time data acquisition across multiple channels

System Integration

I/O Modules: LZ80-K1/K2 (8 inputs, 8 outputs per module)
Comparator Functions: 2-state and 4-state logic for pass/fail judgment
Data Output: Real-time streaming via Ethernet or USB
Software Compatibility: Windows-based configuration and data logging tools
