Heidenhain - Exposed Linear Encoder - LIP

Exposed linear encoders are designed for use on machines and installations that require high accuracy of the measured value.

Typical applications include:

• Measuring and production equipment in the semiconductor industry
• PCB assembly machines
• Ultra-precision machines
• High-accuracy machine tools
• Measuring machines and comparators, measuring microscopes, and other precision measuring devices
• Direct drives

 

LIP - For very high accuracy

The LIP exposed linear encoders are characterized by very small measuring steps together with very high accuracy and repeatability. They operate according to the interferential scanning principle and feature a DIADUR phase grating as the measuring standard.
