Decoupled scale
The measuring standard of the LIP 382 lies on a screw-mountable carrier plate that fully decouples the scale from thermal influences and the machine. This carrier plate is made of a special iron-nickel alloy with a very low coefficient of thermal expansion.
Exceptional accuracy
The LIP exposed linear encoders use interferential scanning. Their measuring standard is a phase grating on a glass-ceramic graduation carrier. These linear encoders feature extremely small measuring steps and exceptional accuracy.
Easy installation
Thanks to very short signal periods and high resolution, the LIP 382 is perfect for high-precision applications. The mounting tolerances of the LIP 382 are unusually wide for such high-accuracy encoders, permitting easy installation.
