High quality linear encoder is available with a resolution 0.5µm, 1µm or 5µm, length 350mm, 500mm, 700mm, and signal output TTL or RS422. The linear scale is widely used in milling, grinding, lathe and EDM machines.
Linear scale for digital readout, milling machine, video measuring machine and profile projector.
Motion speed of linear scale over 60 meters per minute.
The linear scale can be combined with the digital grating to form a grating measuring system for precise and accurate stroke measurement. It can also be used in the processing and measuring industries, such as lathes, milling machines, grinders, and EDM machines.

Q1: What is a linear scale?
A1: The linear scale is a measurement feedback device that works with the optical principle of the grating. The linear scale is often used in the closed-loop servo system of the CNC machine tool and can be used for the detection of linear displacement or angular displacement. The signal output by the linear scale is a digital pulse, which has the characteristics of a large detection range, high detection accuracy and fast response speed.
A2: How does a linear scale work?
Q2: This linear scale is a kind of transmission amplitude grating, and the principle is, when the opposite travel main grating and the subordinate grating occurs, the Moire grid/line is generated. This change will be transferred into an electric signal through the precise photo-electric exchanger, and then the digital signal at the relative travel is output after it is processed by the signal processing circuit.
