Wanted Ditron DMR500 or DMR5000 read head

[slow-poke]

I'm working on a project and need one Ditron magnetic pickup head. I already have the actual scale. If anyone happens to have a spare let me know.

I sent a RFQ directly to Ditron but figured I would ask here just in case.

I think your best opportunity would be to reach out to Ditron on aliexpress. They're having a sale on, but they haven't marked down the dmr500. I'd ask for a 30% discount off their normal $130 cost

Don't forget that Ditron has an Amazon store. I believe it's Kate that looks after it. She might be in China cuz she replies at odd times, but she has that Amazon can-do attitude.

Kate is a pleasure to work with, she has always answered all my questions quickly and concisely. I used Ditron for both mills and everything works well.

Does it look like they are based in Shenzhen? (Where is it shipping from?)

IIRC, ships from somewhere in China.
