SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - November 26, 2013) - HEIDENHAIN releases its newest addition to vacuum encoder technology with the LIP 400 series linear encoder system. Procedures using vacuum ...

Used as an alternative to optical encoders, the AS5311 Hall-effect-sensor-based linear magnetic encoder is presented as the first to offer submicron resolution. For linear motion sensing, a multipole ...

The AS5305 magnetic linear motion encoder IC makes linear-position measurements by sliding a single- or double-track multi-pole magnetic strip over the IC. Using a cost-effective single-track magnetic ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders handle high-res needs in dirty jobs. Linear encoders help minimize errors in motion transmission such as backlash, hysteresis, abbe errors, ball-screw thermal ...

Precision motion and positioning expert PI (Physik Instrumente) recently released a new member of the PIMag ® linear motor stage family. The compact ultra-precise V-551 linear translation stage ...

Thanks to the smooth-running precision linear guides with crossed roller bearings, the linear stage is particularly suitable for scanning applications with constant velocity. The anti-creep system ...
