RGH41 incremental encoder system with RGS40 linear scale
Features
Readhead size: 44 x 27 x 17 mm
Resolutions to 50 nm
Speed up to 15 m/s
Analogue or digital outputs
Traditional optical encoders
Not recommended for new designs
The RG2 and RG4 incremental encoder systems have a strong reputation established over many years for providing reliable and robust position feedback for a wide variety of applications. However, Renishaw is continually developing innovative incremental and absolute encoder technologies and our latest encoder systems offer a range of additional benefits including enhanced metrology, smaller package size, easier installation and detailed diagnostics. Therefore, the RG2 and RG4 series are not recommended for new designs.
The QUANTiC™ encoder series provides robust
incremental position measurement for linear and
rotary systems with excellent metrology and
wide installation tolerances. This reduces or
eliminates the need for mounting adjustment
during the installation process.
EVOLUTE is a true absolute non-contact optical encoder with a 50 μm scale period that gives enhanced installation tolerances and greater dirt immunity for high-volume applications that demand the highest operational integrity. Using a scale period of 50 μm gives EVOLUTE a generous 500 μm rideheight tolerance and its single track optics are optimised for contamination resistance.
