Within the system, three Heidenhain Corp. (www.heidenhain.com) linear encoders maintain extremely constant velocity during line-scanning, and are instrumental in ensuring uniform focus across a slide.

The scanning unit connects to the machine slide via a coupling that compensates for alignment errors between the scale and the machine guideways. In linear encoders for NC applications ...

In this case, the position of the feed-axis slide is measured with a linear encoder and fed back into the axis control as actual position value. In this way the thermal expansion of the ball screw ...

SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - December 04, 2013) - HEIDENHAIN's LC 200 linear encoder continues to set ... and groove system make it possible to slide the housing sections together with ease.

Offering long measurement lengths, the encoders are ideal for dynamic applications in linear direct drives or slide systems, wherever micron accuracy and high repeatability are demanded, for example ...

(Nanowerk News) Global precision motion control and nanopositioning industry leader PI introduces a new high dynamics linear motor stage family ... ensuring longevity in demanding 24/7 operations.

The SureMotion® LAHP series linear actuators, slides, and accessories are XYZ Gantry components that allow creation of a motion system with up to three axes of movement. These motor-ready linear ...

[Chris] uses the same concept, but produced a linear optical encoder instead of rotational. His setup is much like whats used in non stepper-motor CNC and RepRap mills, allowing ordinary DC motors ...

Haydon Switch & Instrument’s size 8 hybrid linear actuators are available with encoder feedback. Their simplicity and low cost suit the encoders well for both high- and low-volume motion-control ...

Heidenhain’s LC 200 linear encoder continues to set the standard in linear measurement ... An integrated seal on the face and a tongue and groove system make it possible to slide the housing sections ...
