The new RSLM stainless steel line provides measurement accuracy comparable to high-precision glass scales, and it is offered in the range of up to 5 m. The linear encoder system with the RSLM line provides a total error (including slopes and linearity) of less than ± 4 μm at 5 m – the best result in the industry! In a system with optical signal filtering that is easy to install and has a periodic error of ± 30 nm and a resolution of up to 1 nm, the RSLM line retains all the advantages of the encoder in 20 μm increments, while ensuring the accuracy of a system with a significantly smaller pitch.

Features and Benefits of the TONiC T1010 reading head and Ti-Interface

– Periodic error: ± 30 nm, which ensures the accuracy of operation inherent in encoders with a smaller pitch.
– Compact overall dimensions: 10.0 × 35.0 × 13.5 mm (H×D×W).
– Extremely high signal stability under conditions not acceptable for most open optical encoders.
– User selectable automatic gain adjustment (AGC) mode allows to maintain a constant analog signal amplitude of 1 Vpp.
– Ability to work at speeds up to 10 m/s and temperatures up to 70 ^° C.
– New opportunity! Increase the stability of positioning due to the optical signal filtering system, characterized by low noise (jitter).
– Standard analog and digital output signals.
– Easy setup and diagnostics of the system thanks to LED indicators on the reading head and interface.
– The flexible cable between the reading head and the UL-compliant interface is up to 10 m long.
– Compliance with the requirements of the RoHS directive.

Ruler RSLM in stainless steel in 20 μm steps

The RSLM ruler in stainless steel with a pitch of 20 microns is excellent for those cases when it comes to moving within a significant length while maintaining high accuracy.

This robust ruler is offered with standard lengths up to 5 m.

The total error is less than ± 4 μm at 5 m.
– Coefficient of thermal expansion: 10.8 μm/m/ ⁰ С.
– Ribbon RSLM can be folded into a ring for convenient handling and storage, while in the straightened state it behaves the same as the scale ruler.
– Fixing with a special adhesive base or mechanical clamps.
– Optical zero mark IN-TRAC with automatic synchronization provides two-way repeatability of arrival to zero point at speeds of movement up to 12.5 m/s.
– Various zero-mark positions for IN-TRAC: in the middle of the scale (RSLM), at the end of the scale (RSLE), with distance codes for indexing short displacements (RSLD) or with equal intervals for customer selection (RSLC).
– Pair limit switches installed directly on the line provide an automatic feed of the signal that initiates the stop of the moved assembly.
