Abstract
The linear conveyor device includes a position detecting device including a scale attached to a slider, and a sensor structural body including a sensor and a driver. The driver is provided with a first and a second signal processing units, and a signal comparison processing unit. The first signal processing unit performs predetermined first interpolation processing on an output signal from a first sensor, generates and outputs first positional data. The second signal processing unit performs predetermined second interpolation processing on an output signal from a second sensor, generates second positional data, and outputs the second positional data. The signal comparison processing unit recognizes the first positional data as positional information of the slider, generates identification information unique to the slider, and outputs the identification information, where the identification information corresponds to a difference between the first positional data and the second positional data.
