Improved Inductive Encoders from Heidenhain Offer Better Control Performance

SCHAUMBURG, IL - (September 2008) - Due to improvements on the ECI/EQI 1300 series of inductive rotary encoders from HEIDENHAIN Corporation, a 19-bit singleturn resolution version is now offered, providing better machine control performance than ever before. This is a result of the addition of a new ASIC being implemented in 2008 on these encoders first introduced to the market about 10 years...

HEIDENHAIN's New Compact Magnetic Encoders Fit Many Applications

SCHAUMBURG, IL - (September 2008) - In order to expand the usefulness of HEIDENHAIN's sturdy modular magnetic encoders, the new ERM 2400 series is introduced. This series features more compact dimensions than the current ERM 200, already commonly used on C axes in lathes, and can be used at higher rotational speeds. This makes it useful in more applications such as in spindles for milling...

Ultra-Precise Positioning of the Largest Telescope in the Northern Hemisphere by HEIDENHAIN

SCHAUMBURG, IL - (September 2008) - After seven years of construction, the largest optical telescope in the northern hemisphere, the Gran Telescopio Canarias (Grantecan) on La Palma, Spain has begun trial operation. HEIDENHAIN model ERA 780C angle encoders are being used to position the telescope-a solution that has already proven itself in numerous telescope projects. The telescope is rotated...

HEIDENHAIN's Revolutionary Encoder Interface is Faster Than Ever

SCHAUMBURG, IL - (September 2008) - Although it no longer needs to prove itself, the EnDat 2.2 encoder interface from HEIDENHAIN sets the standard once again. This bidirectional EnDat 2.2 interface is now available with a clock frequency of 16 MHz for high-response applications with direct drives, especially those found in the electronics industry. The increase from 8 MHz to 16 MHz significantly...
