Industrial history of Givi Misure and progress in optical measurement

Italian instrumentation producer Givi Misure was established in 1979 within the municipality of Nova Milanese in Lombardy. From early operations onward, the manufacturing facility focused on producing optical scales and digital readouts for metalworking machine builders.

In 1996, the enterprise introduced dedicated PBS linear scales tailored for synchronized press brakes, establishing a solid presence across European machinery sectors.

The factory maintains an integrated manufacturing cycle incorporating precision grating engraving, reader carriage assembly, and individual metrological inspection for each completed transducer.

Quality management protocols conform to standard ISO 9001:2015, supporting continuous research into optoelectronic components.

Operating principles of self-aligned GVS 200 scales on press brakes

Linear optical transducers Givi Misure series GVS 200 match the dynamic structural movement of modern hydraulic press brakes. The mechanical design relies on a sprung guide carriage sliding inside a hollow aluminum profile, compensating automatically for frame deflections under heavy bending loads.

The measuring graduation strip is made of stainless steel with thermal expansion characteristics aligned with press machine structures. A non-contact photoelectric scanning head travels along internal guide tracks without friction, preventing wear of optical lines.

The housing is sealed by specialized elastomer lips that block hydraulic oil, coolant mist, and scale particles from reaching optical paths.

Magnetic measurement technology MTS for contaminated plant environments

Magnetic motion measuring systems Givi Misure series MTS and compact MME are engineered for machine tools exposed to intense dust, liquid coolant spraying, and metal chips.

The scanning method utilizes magnetoresistive sensing across alternating magnetic poles on series MP steel tape featuring pole pitches of two or five millimeters.

Operational clearance between sensor heads and the magnetic tape surface extends up to four millimeters, simplifying mounting on large gantry mills and sheet metal production lines.

Fully sealed metal bodies provide high signal stability under heavy mechanical vibration, shock loads, and broad ambient shop temperature fluctuations.

Rotary optical and magnetic encoders series EN 58 for precision drives

Rotary encoders Givi Misure series EN 38, EN 58, and absolute AEN 58 convert angular positions of electric motor shafts, gear reducers, and rotary tables into digital pulses.

On incremental models, a precision glass or metal disc generates up to sixty-four thousand pulses per rotation, providing smooth velocity regulation on servo feed systems. On absolute versions, multi-track code disks identify shaft angles upon system startup without homing routines.

Heavy-duty dual ball bearings support radial and axial shaft loads up to one hundred newtons, while sealed M12 connectors rated IP65 protect electrical signal wiring from ambient fluid ingress.

Digital readout consoles series VI for conventional metalworking machines

Digital display consoles Givi Misure series VI 518, VI 700, and VI 1000 visualize spatial coordinates and automate mathematical processing on universal machine tools. The flagship VI 1000 unit incorporates a 10.1-inch color touch TFT display and simultaneously tracks up to four machine axes.

Built-in firmware provides pre-programmed routines for bolt pitch circle calculations, hole arrays, taper turning, and leadscrew backlash compensation.

Compatibility with absolute SSI and BiSS protocols eliminates table repositioning to machine reference datums after plant electrical interruptions, saving operator setup hours.

Maintenance routines and alignment guidelines for linear measuring heads

Preventive maintenance schedules for Givi Misure measuring instruments mandate regular inspection of rubber sealing lips and removal of metal swarf from exterior aluminum profiles.

Technicians must never clean protective elastomer seals with aggressive acetone solvents that degrade rubber elasticity. During scale installation, parallelism between scale bodies and machine slideways must be verified using dial test indicators within a tolerance of zero point one millimeter.

Electrical signal cables must run through flexible drag chains separated from motor power conduits to avoid electromagnetic noise on digital lines.
