In linear encoders for NC applications, external electronics interpolate sinusoidal signals from the encoder head. The effect is to subdivide the basic line spacing on the scale to gauge smaller ...

The LC xx5 Absolute Sealed Linear Encoders have long been available for use with Siemens, Fanuc, Mitsubishi, and HEIDENHAIN controls -- and can now be ordered with Panasonic interface (Pana01).

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 handle high-res needs in dirty jobs. Linear encoders help minimize errors in motion transmission such as backlash, hysteresis, abbe errors, ball-screw thermal ...

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, ...

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 ...

HEIDENHAIN ’s latest generation of linear scales for position measurement on machine-tool linear axes, the LCxx6 series, are designed with an optimized internal scanning system that makes them ...

The steel scale substrate in the encoders comes in the industry-accepted Singleflex or Doubleflex mounting options at up to a measuring length of 1.2 meters.

If this is sounding like old hat, it’s because we’ve shown you rotational versions before. [Chris] uses the same concept, but produced a linear optical encoder instead of rotational.

Like its predecessors, these encoders are made in a full-sized scale housing (LC 195P) and a slimline scale housing (LC 495P). These encoders are available now with standard delivery times and are ...
