Semi-Modular Design for Easy Integration

This scale features a semi-modular structure with the detector built directly into the scale body. The relative positions of the scale and head are pre-aligned and secured using a slide holder, reducing installation complexity. The SJ700A can be connected directly to Magnescale counters such as the LG20 or LH70 series, enabling fast setup and seamless operation.

Thermal Stability and Mechanical Compatibility

The SJ700A is designed with the same coefficient of thermal expansion as machine tools, ensuring measurement stability even under fluctuating temperatures. This makes it particularly suitable for precision machining environments where thermal drift can affect accuracy.

Ideal for Retrofitting and OEM Applications

Whether you’re upgrading an older machine or designing a new system, the SJ700A offers a robust, economical solution for linear position feedback. Its rugged construction and straightforward installation process make it a favourite among machine builders and maintenance engineers alike.
