Inductive differential sensing for stable output Linear ball‑bearing guide for high repeatability ±2 mm measurement range for fine displacement control Includes 2 m cable with 5‑pin DIN connector

Precise, reliable sensing for repeatable inspection results

The probe uses an inductive differential principle to convert minute axial movements into a stable electrical signal, making it well suited to applications where consistent repeatability is required. The design reduces susceptibility to mechanical backlash and contact wear, while the specified accuracy (0.2+3L³ µm) provides a predictable basis for traceable measurements. As a rational choice for quality assurance loops, this sensing method supports automated comparison, tool setting and component inspection where numerical stability is vital.

Smooth mechanics and low part disturbance for delicate tasks

Mounted with a linear ball‑bearing guide, the mechanism ensures friction‑free stroke motion and reproducible deflection paths, which is particularly important when working with small or delicate components. The measuring force <0.633 N minimises deflection of thin or lightweight parts during contact checks, preserving dimensional integrity while enabling reliable readings. The compact ±2 mm range keeps the active sensing region tight, so transitions between measured positions remain consistent and easy to interpret during routine checks.

Integration-ready electrical interface and practical accessories

Electrical requirements are modest, with a supply characteristic of 0.7 V, 13 kHz, and the probe is supplied with a 2 m connection cable and 5‑pin DIN plug, allowing quick wiring into common indicator amplifiers and data acquisition systems. The included cable reduces installation time and ensures a clean connection for signal transmission, supporting both manual readout and automated measurement chains. Where fixture mounting is needed, the probe’s design and mounting provisions facilitate stable attachment and repeatable positioning in inspection jigs.

FAQ

What measurement range does the probe cover?
The M301.041 measuring probe provides a sensing range of ±2 mm, suitable for fine displacement and comparative checks.

Is the probe suitable for automated gauging systems?
Yes. The inductive differential output and the supplied 2 m cable with 5‑pin DIN make the probe compatible with common indicator amplifiers and data acquisition interfaces for automated gauging.

How does the low measuring force affect parts under test?
With a measuring force below 0.633 N, the probe minimises loading on thin or delicate components, reducing the risk of elastic deformation during measurement.

Can the probe be mounted in custom fixtures?
The device is designed for stable fixture mounting; the mechanical guide and compact body allow repeatable placement in inspection jigs and machine set‑ups.

What accuracy can be expected in practice?
The specified accuracy is given as 0.2+3L³ µm (L in mm); this provides a predictable tolerance framework for integrating the probe into quality workflows and for estimating measurement uncertainty.
