Successful LIDA 400 exposed linear encoder is redesigned for the future of motion feedback
HEIDENHAIN CORPORATION released the well-known LIDA 400 series linear encoder in the year 2000 and, since then, it has established itself in many applications including coordinate measuring machines, linear motion stages, wafer inspection, waterjet cutting, and a long list of others. Now, with advancements in technology, HEIDENHAIN introduces the next generation fully redesigned LIDA 400 series with several benefits and features.
The history of the encoder
As many know, HEIDENHAIN started out in 1889 as a metal-etching company for weight scales in Berlin, and through the years, evolved into the large worldwide precision measurement / motion control component corporation that it is today. An important part of that evolution was HEIDENHAIN’s development of the first precision measurement encoder in the early 1960s, affectionately referred to as the “Dome” or DOM (Digital Optical Measuring instrument).
