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.
Do you strive for increased productivity, lowered material consumption and quality improvement? Leine Lindes gap control solutions are easily integrated in steel mills and other metal processing industries. We offer extremely reliable and accurate gap control, to assure both the quality of the end product and the lowest possible material consumption.
Small, robust and versatile. Our new line of inductive encoders, the M500 series, is designed to meet the challenges of today, as well as the requirements of tomorrow.
One of Leine Linde’s Danish customers is a manufacturer of machinery for the food industry. In one particular case they were building a machine for drying and roasting nuts, to be shipped to an end customer in the US.
Join us in the upcoming webinar about strain measurement to monitor structural loads using the Leine Linde ESR strain sensor. The ESR strain sensor enables fatigue-free, high resolution measurement in mechanical structures to prevent fatigue or overload. The ESR sensor is suitable in sheltered conditions as well as in harsh environments such as cranes, steel mills and wind turbines.
This encoder was installed at German industrial saw manufacturer FORTE GmbH the same year as Microsoft first released Windows 3.1. That same year, Bill Clinton was elected president of the United States, IBM sold the first ThinkPad and Irish band U2 released the single One, while Boyz II Men managed to top the Billboard list with their hit End of the Road. That was 29 years ago, in 1992.
One of Leine Linde’s customers in the Korean steel industry recently wanted to replace an existing encoder from another encoder manufacturer with a modern Leine Linde inductive 600 series encoder equipped with a PROFIBUS interface.
Some of the liquids that are processed in the food industry are really acidic. Cleaning agents and other aggressive substances is frequently used in and around the machines and encoders used must withstand occasional splashes and exposure to such. For one of these machine manufacturers, Leine Linde developed a splash-proof and corrosion resistant absolute encoder used for positioning and synchronization in a packaging and filling machine used in the dairy industry.
The Leine Linde FSI 900 encoder series is now equipped with the EnDat interface that can communicate through a variety of fieldbus interface protocols, making it easier than ever to integrate in your control system.
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.
