Having the right interface is key to selection for many industrial automation applications. With the addition of the Mitsubishi Interface to its existing EnDat and Fanuc interfaces, HEIDENHAIN opens new possibilities for its LC 200 linear encoder. With system accuracy of ±5 µm, the absolute e encoder can measure lengths of up to 28 meters.
The new interface isn’t the only addition to the newest LC 200. The unit’s housing sections have an improved mounting and sealing technology. The integrated seal on the face and a tongue and groove assembly technique make it possible to slide the housing sections together with ease.
Target applications for the encoder include high speed machining applications using linear motors.
