Series LR Linear Encoder Read Heads

|
|
The LR Read Head, when combined with a Series LS Scale, creates a rugged linear measurement system proving excellent speed, and resolution characteristics.
Its precision and speed make it ideal for use in motion feedback, electronics assembly and circuit board fabrication applications. Able to withstand the punishment of dirty and high shock / vibration environments, LR / LS systems can deliver high accuracy position control for machinery used in the metalworking, woodworking and material handling industries.
More cost effective than glass scales and optical reflective tapes, models include the choice of quadrature or sine/cosine outputs, and standard Reference (index) output.

Mechanical and Environmental Features
• NEMA 4/IP66 System Integrity Electrical Features
• Incremental quadrature outputs provide 5 micron (0.0002 inch) measuring
steps |
Large, noncritical gap requirements provide greater system reliability than enclosed glass scales or magnetic tape systems. A simple installation and startup procedure further reduces total costs over competitive devices.
