Miniature linear encoder perfect for linear motors
With its postage-stamp size scanning unit and very high accuracy, these encoders are of special interest to stage manufacturers or anyone using linear motors in their machine design.
Resolvers vs. encoders for motion control
The phrase “more precise control” would generally drive the solution towards an encoder over a resolver. The application of dry food packaging however might tend to drive it back towards a resolver. Here are some characteristics you can consider to help make the decision.
Applications in the laboratory
Modern medical laboratories are characterized by highly automated processes with a high degree of repeatability. Their task is the analysis of very small individual samples in large charges within a very brief time.
Applications for medical therapy
Inaccuracies in the positioning or guidance of the therapy instruments can have far-reaching consequences.
HEIDENHAIN’s high accuracy absolute ring encoder now released for angular motion feedback
For over a decade, HEIDENHAIN has offered the ERA 4000 incremental ring encoder that has proven very successful in many industries and applications such as machine tool rotary tables, semiconductor wafer motion stages, and robotics
HEIDENHAIN’s new VS 101 camera system for automatic machine setup monitoring
In order to automatically monitor the setup situation and machining result with HEIDENHAIN’s flagship TNC 640 mill-turn control, the innovative accompanying VS 101 camera system is now introduced.
Unique touch probe for machine tools uses pressure-sensing
HEIDENHAIN is proud to offer the latest technology in machine tool touch probes. Employing a pressure sensor, HEIDENHAIN's unique TS 740 touch probe also simultaneously maintains unusually high accuracy.
ATEX rotary encoders meet new standards
HEIDENHAIN has released its new series of encoders for potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX), which meet the new standards required today for motion control applications. These HEIDENHAIN ExN and ROx 400 rotary encoders feature a sturdy design with increased wall thickness, smaller cable diameter, and variations for multiple zones and atmosphere classifications.
NUMERIK JENA offers small robust linear encoder with dual scanning windows
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-contact encoder system is compact in dimension, lightweight and capable of high speed motion feedback.
Rotary encoders for Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)
HEIDENHAIN rotary encoders are critical components found in Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) used in distribution warehouses, manufacturing plants, and medical facilities.
