Identification sensor for reading magnetic-coded tags
The MIS is a magnetic-coded identification sensor that is used to identify magnetic-coded tags. The MIS is used in conjunction with magnetic-coded tags and optionally a mounting bracket from SICK. The tag number can either be output via an analog voltage, a current output or via IO-Link. The analog output is configured by default with a 16-step division so that 15 magnetic-coded tags can be differentiated. In addition to identification, the presence of tags can be passed on to the control via a digital switching output. Due to its function, the MIS is particularly well-suited for simple identification tasks as are used in tool or format changes, for example. Thanks to the pre-coded magnetic tags, programming effort is reduced since the tags do not first have to be written. The sensor and the tag(s) simply have to be attached to the desired position(s), then they’re ready to go.

MIS AT A GLANCE
Benefits
-Very easy mounting and commissioning
-High repeatability
-A second sensor for checking for presence is not needed
-No programming effort since the tags are magnetic-coded
-The rugged mounting holds the sensor in the required position, even when exposed to shock and vibration, and increases reliability

Features
-Identification sensor for reading magnetic-coded tags
-The tag number is output either via an analog voltage, a current output or via IO-Link
-Digital switching output for presence detection of the tag

MIS - magnetic-coded identification sensor

Mounting is very simple thanks to the mounting support available as an option.


Since the tags are already magnetic-coded and do not have to be written, no programming is needed.


Due to the high repeatability, a second presence-detecting sensor is no longer needed.

Very easy commissioning thanks to universal mounting support and tags with advance magnetic coding
