The LC xx5 Absolute Sealed Linear Encoders have long been available for use with Siemens, Fanuc, Mitsubishi, and HEIDENHAIN controls -- and can now be ordered with Panasonic interface (Pana01).

Global precision motion control and nanopositioning industry leader PI introduces a new high dynamics linear motor stage family, the V-574 - a new series of linear positioning stages with ...

Balluff’s BML S1G-series absolute magnetic linear encoder is now available with SIL 2 certification.

Heidenhain’s LC 200 linear encoder continues to set the standard in linear measurement on long machine tool axes. Now available with a Mitsubishi interface, this encoder is increasing its available ...

Comprised of an electrically-excited patterned scale and a read head that responds to the electric field flux generated by the scale, this innovative absolute linear electric ...

The SMA2 absolute linear encoder is ideally suited for applications where small size, fine resolution and great accuracy are mandatory, such as linear motors and robotic systems.

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., June 20, 2017/PRNewswire/ -- NUMERIK JENA, known for high quality smaller package-size linear and rotary encoders, has now developed two families of absolute linear encoders to ...

In application, absolute encoders are required if a particular setting must be recognized and available after the system powers down. All other applications can use an incremental encoder.

Absolute linear encoders are making a comeback in the automation world. Absolute encoders eliminate homing routines, end-of-travel switches, and power outage concerns.

The absolute encoder achieves 1nm resolution and transmits the current stage position to the controller immediately after power up – no referencing required and no possibility to lose encoder counts ...
