Applications for an optical linear encoder that can or have had problems with dust and fingerprints are prime targets for NUMERIK JENA’s LIA 2 series optical linear encoder. The encoder has a 20 micron grating period with the graduation applied to either a glass or steel scale substrate. The steel scale substrate options include: industry- […]

Obtain Motion Feedback in High Vacuum Environments
For motion feedback measurements in high and ultra-high vacuum applications, NUMERIK JENA’s LIK 2 optical linear encoder series could provide the solution. Designed for environments with only 10-9 mBar of pressure, the 30mm x 11mm x 6mm sensor has a 20 micron grating period with the graduation applied to either a glass or steel scale […]
Flat Angle Encoder Squeezes into Tight Spots
It’s not uncommon to have a motion feedback application where space is limited. This can occur in semiconductor, medical, metrology, automation and other industries. For these situations, NUMERIK JENA’s RIK kit-style optical angle encoder without bearing could be the solution. It consists of a scanning unit with a very low height profile and a graduation […]
