Incremental rotary encoder LIP 6000

opticalexposeddigital output

Incremental linear encoder with very high accuracy For high-accuracy linear axes up to 3040 mm long Very small measuring step (<1 nm) High speed and position stability Position detection via limit switch and homing track Compact design for limited installation space Interfaces: 1 VPP, TTL High-accuracy scanning The LIP exposed linear encoders use interferential scanning. Their measuring standard is a phase grating on a glass-ceramic graduation carrier. These linear encoders feature extremely small measuring steps and exceptional accuracy. Dependable signal quality The HSP 1.0 ASIC developed by HEIDENHAIN ensures consistently high scanning signal quality. The ASIC compensates for a drop in signal amplitude by increasing the LED current, thus maintaining the optimal signal shape under contamination. Noise is also kept uniformly low. Easy installation Small signal periods normally require very narrow mounting tolerances for the distance between the scanning head and measuring standard. For easy installation, the exposed linear encoders from HEIDENHAIN feature wide mounting tolerances with minimal effect on output signal quality. Application versatility High integration density makes these encoders very compact and light. A variety of mounting options enables use in different applications. Their measuring standard can be adhesively fastened or clamped, and the scanning heads can be selected with a left- or right-side cable outlet. Fast referencing Integrated homing functionality enables position detection and faster system referencing, providing a clear benefit for axes with long traversing paths.
