PMUT-LIN-VJ01 – Linear Encoder for Mutoh ValueJet

PMUT-LIN-VJ01 – Linear Encoder for Mutoh ValueJet

The PMUT-LIN-VJ01 Linear Encoder is a linear sensor used in Mutoh ValueJet large format printers to accurately measure the position of the print carriage.

The linear encoder works in combination with an encoder tape to provide position information to the printer's control system, enabling precise carriage positioning and high-quality printing.

This component is essential for ensuring accurate movement and correct alignment of print passes.

Function of the linear encoder

• Detection of the print carriage position
• Transmission of position data to the control system
• Maintaining print accuracy
• Stabilisation of carriage movements
