In this video, we show how quick and easy it is to get started with the MWS075 spring-loaded measuring wheel system. Mounting the unit takes just two screws and an Allen key.
First, find the right mounting position. Then, press down to reach the required contact pressure of 15 N. Finally, remove the guidance pin and check that the spring travel is within ±3 mm.
Thanks to its built-in overload protection, the MWS075 ensures a long lifetime for your mechanical setup. It’s compatible with nearly all SICK encoders and measuring wheels, giving you maximum flexibility. You can choose from ready-to-buy variants on SICK.com or configure your own MWS075 and assemble it yourself.
For fixed applications, the MWS075 can also be mounted in a fixed position—spring loading already put on the surface by design.
