HS20 Long Range Laser Encoder
ID:HS20
The Renishaw HS20 laser encoder system combines the ultimate accuracy of a laser interferometer with the robustness needed for machine tool applications.
HS20 laser head, in combination with an external linear optics kit, forms a non-contact interferometric laser encoder system for long axis, high accuracy linear position feedback applications.
The HS20 laser system is suitable for use in harsh machine shop environments with ±1.0 part per million (ppm or µm/m) being achievable for axes lengths up to 60 m.
-
- Sub-micron resolution - when integrated into the machine feedback system it gives sub-micron feedback at rates up to 2 m/s (depending on configuration).
- Non-contact measurement - eliminates the associated errors found in rack and pinion or ball screw feedback systems, such as hysteresis, backlash, mechanical and cyclic errors.
- Easy configuration and set up - a single set of dip switches allow for the laser head to be easily configured.
