The MS 15 optical kit-style linear encoder is suitable for motion applications in industries such as metrology, semiconductor, medical and automation. It is 36 x 13.5 x 14.8 mm and provides a 40-micron grating pitch on an 8-mm-wide steel tape carrier with double-stick backing for mounting directly to the machine axis. The measuring tape comes with accuracies of ±5 or ±15 microns/m and in lengths up to 20 m. The reader head has a built-in advanced online compensation that continually adjusts signal deviations of amplitude, offset and phase over a range.
