From compact to extreme: Draw Wire Systems from Wachendorff Automation for demanding industrial processes

With its two product lines, Pure Line and Robust Line, Wachendorff offers optimally coordinated solutions for almost every linear measurement task.

Pure Line – compact and economical with overlapping winding

The Pure Line was developed for applications where compact designs and easy installation are crucial. The mechanisms are specially designed for the integration of Wachendorff rotary encoders and offer a durable, reliable solution for linear measurement tasks. 

Features of the Pure Line

• Measuring ranges from 2,400 mm to 7,500 mm
• Output: incremental or absolute
• Housing made of glass fibre strengthened plastic
• Stainless steel measuring cable with optimal cable guidance and constant cable tension
• Quick and flexible installation, even in tight installation spaces

Robust Line – highly precise thanks to lateral, layer-free winding

The Robust Line was developed for demanding industrial applications where high loads, dirt, moisture or large measuring ranges play a role. The high-quality aluminium housing and precise mechanics ensure reliable measurements even under the toughest conditions.

Features of the Robust Line

• Measuring ranges from 1,250 mm to 40,000 mm
• Output: incremental or absolute
• Robust aluminium housing
• High-precision mechanics with constant cable tension for accurate measurements over the entire distance
• Quick installation thanks to compact design and well-thought-out accessories

Higher precision by combining draw wire mechanism and Wachendorff rotary encoders

All draw wire systems are designed so that they can be easily combined with Wachendorff encoders – both with incremental encoders from the WDGI series and with absolute encoders from the WDGA series. The smart combination of draw wire and encoder results in high-precision, durable and flexible measuring systems.

With its Pure Line and Robust Line draw wire systems, Wachendorff offers a comprehensive range of solutions for linear position measurement in various areas of application.
