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 ...

SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - July 09, 2013) - HEIDENHAIN announces its miniature incremental exposed linear encoders, the LIF400 Series, designed especially for linear motor applications. With its ...

SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - May 12, 2015) - NUMERIK JENA's LIK 41 kit-style optical linear encoder is ideally suited for those motion feedback applications where space is limited. The scanning unit ...

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, ...

The new absolute LC 195M and LC 495M sealed linear encoders from Heidenhain are now available for use on machines that require a Mitsubishi interface. These new encoders improve upon Heidenhain’s ...

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 @ ...

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 ...

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 ...

Comprised of an electrically-excited patterned scale and a read head that responds to the electric field flux generated by the scale, this innovative absolute linear electric encoder is said to ...
