Modular Angle Encoders
-
Modular angle encoders with optical or magnetic scanning come in numerous combinations of a circular scale or scale drum and a scanning head, thus offering the perfectly matched solution for your application. Specs such the interface, accuracy, or diameter can be selected modularly to meet your requirements.

Product
Exposed Linear Encoders
-
Exposed linear encoders consist of a scale or scale tape and a scanning head. Their photoelectric scanning method is touch-free and wear-free, detecting graduation lines just micrometers in width and producing output signals with very short signal periods.

Digital Readouts & Metrology Tools
-
HEIDENHAIN digital readouts have universal applications. In addition to standard tasks on milling, drilling and boring machines and lathes, they also can be used with machine tools, measuring and testing equipment, and special machines in fact, they can be used with any machine where axis slides are traversed manually.

Encoder Testing
-
HEIDENHAIN offers testing and inspection devices for the adjustment and fault diagnosis of its encoders. The highly accurate inspection devices are universally deployable, capable of being calibrated and interposed within the closed control loop. The testing devices are primarily used for the functional testing and adjustment of encoders. HEIDENHAIN encoders deliver all of the setup, monitoring, and diagnostic data needed.
