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 ...

Original equipment manufacturers serving the machine tool, solar, semiconductor, medical, and other industries many alternatives for building linear motion measurement components into computerized ...

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 ...

Speed: Inductive linear encoders are not subject to the speed limits imposed on their optical counterparts. Instead of a bearing-supported carriage riding on a track, inductive encoders rely on read ...
