World-class precision and reliability – Our components lead the market in positioning accuracy and dependability, ideal for unmanned or low-monitored mechanical designs.
Solution variety – From compact incremental solutions to heavy-duty absolute rotary encoders that withstand contaminants or shock, our products are suited for automation in any environment.
Customized consultation – We work with engineers every day to identify—or custom build—motion and measurement components for some of the most demanding and groundbreaking automation applications.
Exploring the Sun
The Sun. It seems nearly close enough to touch and ensures that life on Earth grows and flourishes. Nevertheless, we know surprisingly little about what goes on inside this star. Solar researchers want to change that dilemma with the new DKIST solar telescope in Hawaii. The Leibniz Institute for Solar Physics in Freiburg, Germany (formerly […]
High-Performance Robots Thanks to Encoders with EnDat 2.2
Italian manufacturer Comau places its trust in encoder solutions with EnDat-2.2 interfaces from HEIDENHAIN for its new robot control and 3-D laser system.
Train with full control
AQ Mekatronik in Bollnäs has made the new high-speed train master controller. The model is called MC 400 and is used to control the train’s speed and braking. It is a redundant system with two custom-made absolute encoders from Leine & Linde in each unit which produce a digital output signal pattern. Micro-switches were previously used for the signal pattern.
