Product Description
Long measuring lengths

The linear encoders of this series come in various versions with measuring lengths of up to 10 m. These encoders deliver excellent dynamic behavior, high reliability, and consistently high accuracy over the entire measuring length.

High traversing speeds

Along with high accuracy, the LIC linear encoders feature very high traversing speeds. Measuring steps of just 10 nm and traversing speeds of up to 600 m/min are possible. Position measurement is absolute and, thanks to high contamination resistance, very reliable.

Application versatility

This series can be used in a wide variety of applications. The LIC 3100 series encoders are tough and accurate, enabling high speeds and long measuring lengths.

Resistant to contamination

Thanks to a large scanning field, the encoders of this series are highly resistant to contamination. Localized impurities on the measuring standard have minimal effect on the signal quality and measurement reliability.
