Thanks to its extensive expertise in developing and manufacturing encoders and controls, HEIDENHAIN is in an excellent position to automate the production machines and systems of tomorrow, supplying a number of critical and innovative industries, including machine tools, electronics, robotics, medical technology, elevators, and metrology.
Length Gauges
Length gauges are used to collect short range measurements quickly, reliably, and accurately. These gauges are commonly used wherever fast, reliable, and accurate measurements are required, such as in production metrology, multi-gauging fixtures, measuring equipment monitoring, and position measurement.
Linear Scales
Linear scales direclty measure the position of linear axes, thus eliminating potential error sources such as backlash, pitch error, or heating of the recirculating ball screw.
Rotary & Angle Encoders
Rotary and angle encoders provide speed and position measurement down to sub-arc second accuracy.
Digital Readouts
Digital readouts make your manually operated equipment more profitable, improve productivity, and raise the quality of the machined workpiece.
