VIONiC encoder series
The VIONiC series is Renishaw’s ultra-high accuracy, all-in-one digital incremental encoder for both linear and rotary applications. VIONiC combines all necessary interpolation and digital signal processing inside the readhead, with Sub-Divisional Error (SDE) as low as <±10 nm and resolutions down to 2.5 nm. Available in two…
RESOLUTE encoder series
What is RESOLUTE? RESOLUTE is a true-absolute, fine pitch optical encoder system that has excellent dirt immunity, and an impressive specification that breaks new ground in position feedback. It is the world’s first absolute encoder capable of 1 nm resolution up…
39 mm vacuum chamber window
39 mm vacuum chamber window The Renishaw RLE fibre optic laser encoder uses interferometry to provide high resolution, linear feedback. The differential interferometer head (RLD10-X3-DI) is designed to mount onto the vacuum chamber wall. A vacuum chamber window then allows…
15 mm DI periscope assembly
15 mm DI periscope assembly The periscope assembly increases the offset between the measurement and reference beams of the RLD10-X3-DI differential interferometer detector head. The assembly uses two mirrors to increase the offset by 15 mm to produce a total separation of…
RVI20 vacuum compatible interferometer
RVI20 vacuum compatible interferometer The RVI20 is a vacuum compatible interferometer assembly for plane mirrors, which when used with a Renishaw RLD10-A3-XX detector head offers the ability to keep the entire measurement path within the vacuum environment. The RVI20 is…
