Encoder provides dual- and single-axis capability.

Laser Model RLE interferometer-based encoder uses fiber optic links to transport laser beam directly to axis measuring position. Optical beam-steerer reduces laser alignment to simple bolt-down and dial-in process. Using retroreflectors or plane mirrors, system can be applied to axis lengths up to 4 m. It allows outputs in digital RS422 format quadrature, with resolutions from 10-633 nm, or 1 Vpp...

CMM Probe performs scanning and touch-trigger probing.

Model SP25M uses Renscan(TM) technology to provide scanning on coordinate measuring machines and vision systems. Measuring only 1 in. in diameter, probe can be mounted to motorized articulating heads, or fitted to extension bars to allow access to deep part features. Interchangeable scanning probe modules are available, each optimized to suit range of stylus lengths from 0.8-8 in. Model SP25M...

Laser System detects broken tools.

Non-contact NC3, for tool setting, measures tools as small as 0.2 mm diameter anywhere along laser beam. Drip rejection procedures offer protection from unwanted trigger signals. Continuous stream of air flows through Microhole(TM) apertures to protect system from all possible contaminants such as coolant, chips, and graphite. Protection is constant at any orientation and has no effect on Ã-

Scanning Probe brings inspection and scanning to small CMMs.

SP600Q is 98 mm long and mounts directly to quill of CMM. It allows rapid scanning measurements or digitizing, even around sharp corners. Stylus modules attach magnetically to kinematic mount for repeatable stylus changes without re-qualification. With wide range of styli and 0.1 micron resolution, SP600Q is suitable for part inspection and measurement, as well as scanning finely detailed molds,...

Linear Encoder works with fiber optic splicing machines.

RGH25F non-contact linear encoder with cut-to-length scale and low-mass readhead provides resolutions from 5 microns to 10 nm for accurate fiber positioning. It works at speeds to 300 mm/sec to keep up with quick-moving, multi-axis fiber optic splicing, joining, and bonding devices. Its self-adhesive gold-plated steel tape scale is easy to install. Filter optics provide immunity to dust,...

Probe inspects machine tools.

Ultra-compact OMP40 probe measures 40 mm dia and 50 mm long, suitable for probing on small machining centers and high-speed machines fitted with small HSK and small taper spindles. It has 360 deg optical transmission system with range of up to 3 meters, allowing probe operation in any spindle orientation. OMP40 is sealed to IP68 and incorporates digital filter. Applications include automated part...

Encoder are for glass scale applications.

RG40 linear encoder system combines precision of non-contact, contamination-tolerant optical RG readheads with accuracy and thermal behavior of glass scales. In lengths of 300, 500, 750 and 1000mm, glass scales use clip mounts to expand with thermal change for wide range of materials. Encoder system is for use by makers of precision stages, linear motor stages, pick & place equipment, and other...
