is a range of robust metrology-grade encoders that are compatible for industrial applications. They integrate four reading heads to abolish usual sources of encoder faults. They are made up of stainless steel making it able to withstand vibrations and shock.
The encoders are made for the accurate positioning of rotary tables on machine tools, dividing units, antennas, test tools and all the likes.
The series integrates an inner application-specific integrated circuit to generate quadrature square waves up to 64 times the line count on the disc. As a result, the resolution is possible to be as fine as 0.28 arcsec.
The Series 8X60 is a robust metrology-grade encoder that is equally well-suited for industrial applications. It incorporates four reading heads to eliminate many common sources of encoder errors, while its stainless steel construction greatly enhances resistance to shock and vibration.It is designed for very precise positioning of rotary tables on machine tools, coordinate measuring machines, dividing apparatus, antennas, test equipment and similar devices.The 8X60 incorporates an internal ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) to generate quadrature square waves up to 64 times the line count on the disc. Thus, the resolution (after 4X oquadrature evaluation by the user) can be as fine as 0.28 arcsec (0.000078, or 4,608,000 counts per revolution).The 8X60 is available in both shafted and hollow shaft versions, and is interchangeable with common competitive products. It comes in two accuracy grades:
