Attaching the tape ends

The tape or cover strip may slide or peel off depending on
ambient conditions.
To prevent this, we recommend additional measures:
Fasten both tape ends.
Use additional attachment points at approx. 1m spacing,
using for example cover strip applied cross-wise (especially
for very long measuring lengths).
Fasten the tape end or cover strip
at the front. The tape ends can be
traveled over.
Strip the tape end up to the carrier
film (mill, file) and fasten with a
countersunk screw. The tape ends
can be traveled over.
Fasten the tape ends with a
cylinder screw. The tape ends
cannot be traveled over.
Fasten the tape ends with a
countersunk screw or rivet. The
tape ends can be traveled over.
Countersink the slot at the ends
and fasten the tape ends with a
countersunk screw or cylinder
screw. The tape ends can be
traveled over.
Fig. 4-5: Fasten the tape ends with screws, rivets, and clamps
Fig. 4-5 shows a few fastening options:
– Bonding
– Bonding and bolting
– Bonding against the reference edge
– Bonding and countersinking in the slot
– Bonding, countersinking, and potting
– Bonding and fixing with clamps
Provide for a reference edge on
the machine part (height max. 1
mm) lengthwise to the tape.
Align the tape with this edge.
Fasten the ends.
Do not mill the slot over the
entire length of the machine
part. This will provide the tape
with a fixed stop. The tape ends
can be traveled over.
Bolt down the tape and cover
strip with a non-magnetic clamp
or a piece of cover strip. You
can travel over the tape ends as
long as the sensor head does
not collide with the cover strip.
Bolt down the tape and cover
strip in the slot with a non-
magnetic clamp or a piece of
cover strip. You can travel over
the tape ends as long as the
sensor head does not collide
with the cover strip.
Bolt down the tape and cover
strip with a non-magnetic clamp
or a piece of cover strip on the
sides of the machine part. You
can travel over the tape ends as
long as the sensor head does
not collide with the cover strip.
