High reliability through magnetically driven counter

The counter of the Colibri 490 is driven without contact through a magnetic field and therefore cannot be affected by dust and dirt.

This quality is advantageous for use on punches because chips are produced here and with them also comes fine abrasion that would affect the functionality of conventional counters. The Colibri 490 is also resistant to shocks up to 20g and even functions perfectly in the case of vibrations up to 2g at 150 Hz, Furthermore, neither strong water jets nor extreme temperatures between –10 °C and +50 °C can wear the counter.

Another striking feature of the Colibri is its high counting frequency of up to 20 numbers per second. This means that the counter is also suitable for use in machines with very high cycle rates. The maintenance-free operation, the long service life of up to 10 million switching cycles and the very compact design (27x25x20mm) also weigh in favour of the Colibri 490. Due to its compact dimensions, the counter can be installed in a wide range of applications - even in those that have very little installation space available.
