What is QUANTiC? The QUANTiC encoder series integrates Renishaw's filtering optics design and interpolation technology to create a high performance, super-compact, digital all-in-one incremental open optical encoder. QUANTiC encoder systems are easy to install with exceptionally wide installation and running tolerances, along with built-in installation and calibration functions. Further diagnostic information can be accessed by using the Advanced Diagnostic Tool ADTi‑100 and ADT View software during installation or for in‑field diagnostics and fault finding. Speeds up to 24 m/s can be achieved to meet the most demanding motion control requirements. The QUANTiC encoder offers resolutions down to 50 nm and a wide range of configurations, making optimisation easy and simple. Dynamic signal processing gives improved signal stability to achieve superior performance from your motion control system. What is RTLC40 scale? RTLC40 is a low profile stainless steel tape scale featuring 40 µm pitch incremental graduations and IN-TRAC customer selectable reference marks.There are two levels of accuracy - standard with ±15 µm/m and high accuracy with ±5 µm/m. Both can be supplied in lengths up to 10 metres. Two mounting options are available, both of which allow independent thermal expansion and tape scale convenience. RTLC40 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.
