DIN SPEC 91411: A standardized representation of magnetic scales

Jürgen Gerber, Rolf Slatter

Abstract

When it comes to scales for magnetic length and angle measurement systems, there has been no uniform terminology, no common drawing rules - neither for the mechanical nor for the magnetic parameters - and this has often led to misunderstandings or even errors in de-sign drawings. This primarily affects manufacturers of magnets, magnetic scales and sen-sors as well as machine or device manufacturers. A consortium consisting of a total of 13 companies and research institutions, mainly members of the Innovation Platform for Mag-netic Microsystems INNOMAG e. V., has now developed a DIN SPEC standard for the uni-form representation of magnetic measuring scales.
