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 ...

Renishaw has developed a track-mounting linear encoder scale system that combines ±5µm/m accuracy with the ruggedness of stainless steel and the rapid installation of a carrier-type encoder system.

The RSLM linear encoders are a new addition to Renishaw’s SiGNUM range of optical encoders. The company said the RSLM linear encoders overcome limitations of glass scale with superior durability, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.

Our product line includes linear scales, rotary and angular encoders, digital readouts, digital length gages, CNC controls and machine inspection equipment.

NUMERIK JENA’s LIK 41 kit-style optical linear encoder is ideally suited for those motion feedback applications where space is limited.

Fast evaluation of a linear scale for a linear encoder with a Fizeau interferometer and stitching technique Published in: 2018 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Manufacturing (ICAM) Article #: ...

The LIDA 500 Series 20-µm incremental linear scale offers measuring steps of 1 to 0.1 µm. Glass scales are the measuring standard and each encoder has a midpoint reference mark. The 500 Series ...
