The new absolute LC 195M and LC 495M sealed linear encoders from HEIDENHAIN are now available for use on machines that require a Mitsubishi interface. These new encoders improve upon HEIDENHAINs already successful LC xx3 series, as the LC 195M/495M now focus on the requirements for purely-serial absolute systems for Mitsubishi drive components. The transmission […]

RSF Offers New Exposed Linear Encoder with Multi-Color LED Status Display
The new RSF MS 45 brings to market an exposed linear encoder that features an integrated status display with a multicolor LED to facilitate simple mounting as well as to allow for monitoring signal quality during operation. This unusual scale with an accuracy grade of ± 30 µm is perfect for simpler applications such as […]
HEIDENHAIN’s New Incremental Linear Scales Offer More
HEIDENHAIN now offers higher precision than ever for use on high accuracy machine tools, jig bore and grinding machines, and linear motors. Sporting new designs of the scanning electronics and mechanical setup, these new LF 485 and 185 incremental models replace HEIDENHAIN’s LF 481 and 183 linear scales, and are characterized by very high repeatability […]
LC 200 Linear Scale from HEIDENHAIN
HEIDENHAIN’s new LC 200 linear scale sets new standards in linear measurement on long machine-tool axes. With this scale, the advantages of absolute position acquisition are now available for measuring lengths of up to 28 meters (almost 92 feet), and provide that reference routines, which can be particularly cumbersome on long axes, become unnecessary since […]
Absolute LC 115 and LC 415 sealed linear encoders from HEIDENHAIN
The absolute LC 115 and LC 415 sealed linear encoders from HEIDENHAIN are now available for use on machines with measuring lengths up to 4240 mm. Their double sealing lips on the LC 115 version protect against contamination, and their extrusions ensure high vibration resistance, making these encoders extremely strong on the accuracy front. These […]
RSF Open Linear Encoder
A new open linear encoder (no housing on scale) equipped with a unique integrated mounting control is now available from RSF. Called the MS 25, this RSF encoder utlizes a tricolored LED directly at the reading head enabling the user to gage if the mounting and subsequent measurement readings are optimal. It is available in […]
