Leine & Linde releases the IXA 648 absolute inductive encoder with ATEX and IECEx certification
For offshore motion control applications, particularly in the Oil & Gas industries, it has become mandatory to utilize an encoder with IECEX Zone 1/21 certifications. To accommodate that, Leine & Linde now offers its IXA 648 absolute rotary encoder as certified according to ATEX and IECEx, for use in hazardous applications where extreme conditions - such as high temperature and pressure, salty corrosive atmosphere and potentially explosive environments - are common.
RENCO modular rotary encoders ideal for mobile robots
HEIDENHAIN's RENCO brand of encoders are well suited and available for use within a variety of mobile robot applications. Specifically, the modular RENCO R35i and RCML15 rotary encoders (*new brochure available) have proven themselves time and again to be essential for motion and speed feedback control in Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) projects used in distribution warehouses, manufacturing plants and medical facilities of note. The encoders' slim and lightweight design combined with their reliability is making them a popular go-to source for AGV feedback.
NUMERIK JENA offers miniature linear encoder for vacuum applications
NUMERIK JENA's LIK 2 optical linear encoder series is now ready for high and ultra high vacuum applications where motion feedback is required inside the vacuum chamber.
Leine & Linde 900 series encoders now with EtherCAT option
Leine & Linde's PSE and PHE 900 series of rotary encoders are perfectly suited for heavy duty applications commonly found in the steel, mining and energy industries to name a few, and are now available with an EtherCAT interface option.
Inductive multiturn rotary encoders with improved control quality
Users of machine tools, robots and general automation technology are constantly demanding solutions that are high in performance and low in cost.
Effective collision protection with HEIDENHAIN touch probes
A wrong tilt is all that’s needed, and the touch probe collides with the workpiece or clamping fixture. As an industry innovation, HEIDENHAIN now offers a touch probe called the TS 460 that features a collision adapter.
What is cross-talk compensation in controls?
Compensation of acceleration-dependent position errors at the tool center point leads to better machining results.
Technical TidBit: Advantages of absolute encoders and pure serial interface
Provided by Bob Setbacken, HEIDENHAIN Product Manager, Leine & Linde Absolute encoders transmit position information digitally. All signal compensation ...
An RSF encoder designed for machines with loose mechanical motion
RSF Elektronik offers a linear motion feedback encoder system that is specifically designed for machines with loose mechanical motion during operation. Called the MSA 37x series, these encoders are especially well suited for motion applications such as press brake and metal forming/bending machines, or any other type of machine that have significant flexure near the area requiring motion feedback.
ACU-RITE’s MILLPWR G2 control now offers more to milling
The ACU-RITE MILLPWR G2 control is today's easiest-to-operate CNC for vertical knee and bed mills and is now available with an optional AMIG2 console offering users the ability to use common interfaces as well as control its host machine tool's spindle.
