Renishaw (www.renishaw.com) has developed new linear encoders that feature a special stainless steel scale, ultralow ±30 nm cyclic error, patented filtering optics and ±4μm accuracy to deliver the ...

In automation, precision and reliability are no longer optional; they are requirements. For a wide variety of machine types and processes, linear guides provide that accuracy and high-capacity travel.

A typical linear encoder consists of a scanning unit and a scale. The scale is generally glass and is cemented to a support, usually an aluminum extrusion. The scanning unit contains a light source, ...

RSF Elektronik has developed the smallest full sealed linear encoder for motion feedback available in the marketplace. The MSA 170 has a scale cross section of just 14mm x 10mm and contains a tiny ...

SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - June 11, 2013) - HEIDENHAIN's LC 200 linear encoder continues to set the standard in linear measurement on long machine tool axes. Now available with a Fanuc interface, ...

SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - October 15, 2015) - NUMERIK JENA's LIA 2 series optical linear encoder series is designed to be more robust against certain contaminations like dust and fingerprints due ...

Offering high reliability and safety, the LIC 4000 series linear position encoders integrate a multi-substrate scale tape with absolute encoder technology, which provides position immediately at ...

The LMI-100 series of inductive encoders consist of a stainless steel linear scale tape and non-contact encoder head. Features of the IP 67 rated (fluid submersible) system are high speed – 10 M/sec @ ...

Featuring a postage-stamp-sized scanning unit along with high accuracy, Heidenhan’s incremental exposed linear encoders will likely fit the needs of stage manufacturers or anyone using linear motors ...

Aura P is a high-resolution absolute encoder in a super-compact form-factor. Credit INMOCO The Aura P is presented in a connection-ready PCBA (printed circuit board assembly), enabling fast and easy ...
