The HEIDENHAIN LC 485 absolute linear encoders offer measuring steps to 0.1µm (resolution to 0.005µm for limited installation space. High positioning accuracy and traversing speed through single-field scanning.

The HEIDENHAIN LC 485 linear encoder provides the absolute position value immediately upon switch-on—without previous movement of the machine axes. The absolute value is transmitted serially to the subsequent electronics over the EnDat interface. The slimline housing profile makes the LC 485 particularly suited to applications with restricted mounting space.
