Absolute linear encoder RESOLUTE™ RTLA30

opticalnon-contactIP64

What is RESOLUTE? RESOLUTE is a true absolute, fine pitch optical encoder system that has excellent dirt immunity, and an impressive specification that breaks new ground in position feedback. It is the world's first absolute encoder capable of 1 nm resolution up to 100 m/s. Ultra low SDE and jitter result in a linear encoder system that outperforms any other encoder in its class. The Queen's Award for Enterprise: Innovation 2015 What is RTLA30 scale? RTLA30 is a low profile stainless steel tape scale featuring our 30 µm pitch absolute scale code. It is accurate to ±5 µm/m and available in lengths up to 21 metres. Two mounting options are available, both allow independent thermal expansion and tape scale convenience. RTLA30 can be used with the revolutionary FASTRACK™ scale carrier system. This system allows a track to be laid quickly and easily with no need for fixing holes. A sacrificial spacer is removed and the tape scale is then fed into the track. RTLA30-S is laid onto the substrate with self-adhesive backing tape. The self-adhesive is formulated in such a way that it allows for independent scale expansion to that of the substrate. To complete the installation, both types of scale are clamped at one point to provide a datum position.
