The Magnescale SL130 is a high-performance magnetic ribbon scale designed for long-range, non-contact position detection in industrial environments. As part of the Digiruler series, the SL130 offers excellent resistance to oil, dirt, vibration, and shock — making it ideal for harsh workshop conditions.

With a maximum measuring length of up to 30 metres, the SL130 is well-suited for large-scale machine tools, gantry systems, and automated production lines. It delivers a resolution of 10 µm and supports response speeds of up to 300 m/min when paired with compatible read heads such as the PL20C and counters like the LH71 series.

Its magnetic detection principle ensures long-term stability and minimal maintenance, while its slim, ribbon-style form factor allows for easy installation on a wide range of machines — from woodworking to metal cutting.

Ideal for harsh environments

Thanks to its rugged design, the SL130 thrives in environments where traditional encoders fail. Its magnetic sensing technology is immune to oil mist, metal shavings, and temperature fluctuations, making it a reliable choice for heavy-duty applications. Whether you’re operating in a machine shop or a high-speed production line, the SL130 ensures consistent performance and minimal maintenance.
