Leine Linde is a Swedish company founded in 1967, specializing in the development and manufacture of robust encoders, sensors, and system electronics for industrial applications. Their products are primarily used for measuring speed, position, or strain, and are renowned for their durability, performance, and reliability in harsh environments. Leine Linde serves industries such as cranes, pulp & paper, renewable energy, steel, marine & offshore, and mining. With a global presence across all continents, the company collaborates closely with customers and partners through local offices and representatives, ensuring exceptional value to original equipment manufacturers and end-users worldwide.
Where space is limited our 700 series incremental encoders is a very popular choice for those looking for a robust and reliable encoder. Its compact format makes it the ideal choice for many applications where build length is an issue.
In a cold rolling steel mill, very aggressive liquids are used in the rolling process, making it a very demanding environment. Not even an encoder in anodized aluminum would last here for more than possibly a year.
Leine Linde encoders are easy to fit and integrate with your control system. This is vital, for example, when you want to minimize downtime related to installation of new machines in an existing production set-up.
When you want feedback on both speed and position, you may want to combine an incremental and an absolute encoder on the same axis. This was the case for one of our customers, designing a high-voltage switch for a power generation application.
Any machinery used in China from 1 October 2020 must comply with the Chinese standards regarding hazardous locations. Leine Linde is therefore happy to announce that our popular encoder XHI 841, used with motors and drives, is already certified to the CCC Ex standards. XHI 841 can thus be used with machinery intended for operation, in hazardous locations zone 1 or 21, in Chinese facilities.
Leine Linde engineers enjoy coming up with solutions that simplify installation work. One of our customers were retrofitting XHI 893 encoders in a number of wind power generators. The previous encoders were of a different make, with a different mounting.
Leine Linde heavy duty encoders have a broad operating temperature span, already in their standard design. The encoders in the 800 series are available in variants for temperatures down to -40ºC and up to +100ºC.
The YAWMO® solutions from Leine Linde are robust position sensors adapted to the specific needs and demands of wind turbines today and tomorrow. High availability is an important aspect! This is achieved by the reliable and durable components for accurate position measurement and yaw motion monitoring. Where certified safety functions in accordance with the machinery directive (2006/42/EG) and IEC 61400 are needed, the solution can be found in a product designed for the exact function.
The EMS solutions from Leine Linde are measuring strain for the optimization of wind turbine control and condition monitoring. EMS stands for Elongation Measurement System, and consists of strain sensors together with a central evaluation unit to help with reading out and analyzing the values. This solution is ready to be installed in wind turbines or other applications.
