Installation guide: FORTiS-S™ enclosed encoder system

This system is an enclosed linear optical encoder designed for use in harsh industrial environments where high-precision feedback and metrology are required. Based upon Renishaw’s award-winning absolute technology, the rugged non-contact design has no internal moving parts, such as bearings or wheeled readhead carriages, thus improving the overall reliability. Additionally, hysteresis and backlash errors associated with mechanical contact system designs are reduced.
