One measuring standard and two conventional scanning heads provide position feedback in the primary direction and a perpendicular secondary direction. This makes it possible to measure and compensate for neighboring-axis motion within a compact installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement:\u003c\/strong\u003e absolute, with two orthogonal graduation tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary measuring length:\u003c\/strong\u003e up to 3040 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary measuring length:\u003c\/strong\u003e ±0.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasuring step:\u003c\/strong\u003e down to 1 nm in the primary direction, depending on the scanning head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraversing speed:\u003c\/strong\u003e up to 600 m\/min with the specified scanning heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasuring standard:\u003c\/strong\u003e LIC 4003 Dplus linear scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary scanning head:\u003c\/strong\u003e AK LIC 41x series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary scanning head:\u003c\/strong\u003e AK LIC 21x series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterfaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e EnDat, Fanuc Serial Interface, Mitsubishi high speed interface, Panasonic Serial Interface or Yaskawa Serial Interface, depending on the scanning heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSelection and installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe encoder consists of a Dplus measuring standard and two separately selected scanning heads. Choose the measuring length, scale material and fastening method, then match both scanning heads to the control interfaces, measuring steps, cable lengths and connectors required by the machine. Primary and secondary measuring performance are different. The standard LIC 4100 and LIC 2100 scanning-head specifications do not make their conventional scale accuracy grades the accuracy grade of the Dplus scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe large scanning field improves resistance to contamination, but this is an exposed encoder. Protect and install the measuring standard and scanning heads as required for the application.
