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 ...

Encoders that measure longer distances contain scales made from steel tape. A typical tape is about 0.3 mm thick and contains a grating of highly reflective gold lines with a pitch of about 100 ∝m.

A high resolution encoder allows measurement of linear position or speed without contact between the sensor head and scale. The Kübler Linear Measurement System senses movement via a magnetic scale ...

Renishaw’s Slovenian motion sensing associate, RLS, has developed a novel absolute linear encoder technology with an accuracy of ±5µm and capable of delivering full closed-loop control. The heavy-duty ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with ... Real-time linearity correction is available for measurement accuracy down to 20 ...

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, this encoder is increasing its available ...
