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 ...

RSF Elektronik MSA 7/8 linear encoders for high-end metrology position feedback. Available through HEIDENHAIN CORPORATION in North America. The MSA 7/8 series encoders are ideal for high-end metrology ...

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, ...

SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - May 29, 2013) - The new absolute LC 195S and LC 495S sealed linear encoders from HEIDENHAIN are now available for use on machines that need to be certified for ...

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 ...

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 @ ...

Gloucestershire-based Renishaw has introduced its true-absolute multi-DoF (multiple degrees of freedom) encoder system, ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

HEIDENHAIN’s new LIP 6000 miniature linear encoder system, consisting of a scanning unit and glass scale, has the unusual capability to measure to 2 nm resolution with high speed of 4m/sec at long ...

Even a little bit of thermal drift can present a big problem for production machines that require dead-on positioning accuracy. HEIDENHAIN has now come up with a solution that can help machine ...
