Position feedback without purge air

TRUE IMAGE TECHNOLOGY for sealed linear and angle encoders from HEIDENHAIN

Thanks to TRUE IMAGE TECHNOLOGY, the Series 6 LC linear encoders and Series 1 RCN angle encoders from HEIDENHAIN maintain a clear image of their scales despite exposure to condensation and liquid contamination in applications such as machine tools. A special light-guiding element eliminates optical distortions, allowing these encoders to reliably deliver high-accuracy position feedback, even without purge air in many cases. The benefits include lower system costs and an up to 99% smaller carbon footprint.

Improve accuracy and throughput

Unlocking new potential in chipmaking with HEIDENHAIN MULTI-DOF TECHNOLOGY

Chiplet technology and new mid-end-of-line processes in semiconductor manufacturing have laid the groundwork for artificial intelligence, humanoid robots and self-driving vehicles. Advances in production miniaturization have downscaled the distance between electrical contacts to 2 microns, thus reaching a key milestone. But even smaller structures are attainable at greater throughput with the HEIDENHAIN encoders and ETEL motion systems being showcased at SEMICON West 2024.
