May 15, 2012 Available in 2 models with line counts of 9,000 and 18,000, ERO 6000 has METALLUR scale graduation that is adhered to steel hub, and compact scanning head based on divergent scanning principle that does not require lenses or other beam-directing optics. Scanning method results in grating period of 20 µm, regardless of diameter. Integrated in encoder's scanning sensor, signal error compensation function compensates amplitude size and amplitude ratio within certain limits.

Dec 02, 2010 Available in various hollow shaft diameters, Series RCN 2000/5000/8000 provide position and speed control through use on rotational axes. Encoders use single-field scanning principle with optical filtering to produce optimal scanning signals. In addition to evaluation electronics with diagnostic functions, units include plug-in cables with quick disconnect at encoder. Axial and radial deflection behavior, along with torsional rigidity of stator couplings, maximize mounting tolerances.

Absolute Length Gauge uses optical technology.

Heidenhain Corp.    Schaumburg, IL 60173-5337
Sep 13, 2010 Characterized by absolute position value formation, IP64-rated ACANTO Series hosts absolute optical encoder and therefore do not need re-referencing and will not drift. Optical scanning of absolute graduations promotes accuracy over entire measuring length, which is either 12 or 30 mm. EnDat 2.2 interface offers status request function and diagnostic capabilities as well as instant commissioning, and OEM-specific information can also be saved in memory.

Digital Readout features dark gray faceplate.

RSF Electronics, Inc.    Rancho Cordova, CA 95670
Jun 04, 2010 Supporting up to 4 axes, QUADRA-CHEK ND 1200 functions as measuring computer for 2-D geometries. Unit features monochrome flat-panel LCD screen for displayed values, dialogs, and inputs, and RS-232-CN.24 serial interface for communication with PC. Printers or memory media can be connected via USB port. Housed in diecast aluminum enclosure, readout is suitable for optical comparators, measuring microscopes, and 2-D measuring machines.

Electronic Handwheel simplifies setup of automation systems.

Heidenhain Corp.    Schaumburg, IL 60173-5337
May 25, 2010 Used in association with machine control, HR 1120 provides mechanical detent with 100 positions per revolution, permitting precise and exact control of movement. Electrical signal output at TTL levels with differential signals as per RS422 allows connection to many standard PLCs and PC slot cards. Compact electronic handwheel is suited for both portable and stationary housings.

IR Touch Probe for CNC Machines enhances productivity.

Heidenhain Corp.    Schaumburg, IL 60173-5337
May 05, 2010 Designed for use with numerically controlled machine tools, TT 449 unit can be placed anywhere on work table and is rated for continuous duty at 200 hr typ with included lithium battery. Design eliminates need for cable, increasing mobility for tool measurement and inspection directly on machine. Suitable for applications where unlimited movements are necessary, IP67-rated tool also has rated break point that protects touch probe from damage due to operator error.
