The company said the RSLM linear encoders overcome limitations of glass scale with superior durability, longer scale lengths, and easier installation, and use a special alloy stainless steel spar ...

The LS 1679 is a sealed linear-scale encoder with an integrated roller guide.

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 ...

One key benefit over incremental linear encoders is inherent absolute positioning. A linear encoder is basically a ruler or scale marked with increments that a reading head counts as it travels past.

HEIDENHAIN announces its miniature incremental exposed linear encoders, the LIF400 Series, designed especially for linear motor applications. With its postage-stamp size scanning unit and very ...

NUMERIK JENA's LIA 2 series optical linear encoder series is designed to be more robust against certain contaminations like dust and fingerprints due to its dual scanning window sensor. This non ...

The low thermal expansion (3.3 ppm/°C) precision glass scale encoder results in high-accuracy and repeatable positioning over long periods of time. The linear encoder is available with amplified sine ...

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 ...

SCHAUMBURG, USA: HEIDENHAIN releases its newest addition to vacuum encoder technology with the LIP 400 series linear encoder system. Procedures using vacuum technology have become indispensable in ...

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 ...

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 ...

Optical encoders are nothing new; they can be found in everything from mice to printers. They’re great for allowing DC motors to know their exact position and even current direction. If this … ...
