Linear encoder OLC series
Linear encoder OLC series optical linear encoders consist of a gasket-protected aluminum housing and a optical sensor that moves within this housing.
It is friction-less due to making non-contact measuring with glass scale.
With its (Optional) reference signal at every 50 mm and its resolution of 5μm,
it is very suitable for high precision measurements. It has additional protection against dust, dirt and chip.
Properties:
- Incremental optical system
- Different measuring lengths from 50 mm to 1000 mm
- Reader sensor which is bared with steel shafts and rollers
- Gasket protected aluminium body
- Optional reference signal which can be selected at every 50 mm
- 5µm resolution
- IP54 protection class
- Compact design
- Wide mounting tolerance
- 60 m/min traversing speed
