Encoder solutions from Renishaw

★ By Editor Leave a Comment

ANAHEIM, CA. — Renishaw shows advanced positioning, measurement and calibration solutions at ATX West 2008. 

Optical Encoders

–New SiGNUM™ RSLM high accuracy stainless scale for flat panel applications matches glass scale performance with superior durability and installation ease
±30 nm cyclic error, patented filtering optics, resolution to 5 nm and simple installation give SiGNUM™ RSLM the benefits of a 20 µm encoder with the performance of a fine pitch system

Laser Encoders

–RLE20 fiber-optic laser interferometer encoder introduces picometer resolution, differential measurement, and part per billion laser frequency stability
Alignment of just two components forms axis positioning system, allowing exceptional application flexibility and installation ease
