    Indicator Display

    More customizable than standard indicators, these digital indicators have programmable features that help you adapt them to your application. Like other indicators, they track your machine component as it moves along a rotating spindle, lead screw, or other threaded shaft, which helps you adjust machinery with speed and precision. This saves time and prevents errors on process lines that you constantly adapt for different products, such as packaging lines.
    Program the number you want added per revolution—you can use these indicators as a reference point or as a true measure of distance. To measure distance, match the indicator’s count per revolution to your lead screw’s threads per inch or thread pitch. You can adjust them to count from their original position or from their most recent stopping point, which is useful for repeating moves. They also have settings to work with clockwise and counterclockwise rotation, as well as vertical and horizontal shafts.
    Rated IP67, all are sealed against dust and water, even if briefly submerged. They meet IEC 61326-1, which is an international standard for electromagnetic immunity and emissions.

    Send the real-time position of machine parts moving along spindles, lead screws, and threaded shafts to your computer or programmable logic controller (PLC). These indicators help you make faster, more precise adjustments than you can with standard position indicators. They have built-in transmitters that wirelessly exchange data with a controller (sold separately) plugged into your computer or PLC up to 100 ft. away. These indicators save time and help prevent errors on packaging lines and other processes that you regularly adapt for diverse products. When it’s time to reposition a component, set the new target position on your computer or PLC, and the controller will relay it to these indicators.
