Request InfoHeidenhain CorporationHeidenhain Corp. has expanded its line of modular magnetic encoders with the ERM 2400 series, which features a more compact size for a broader range of applications, such as in spindles for milling machines. The devices consist of a scanning head and scale drum assemblies. Capable of enduring high rotational speeds, the scale drum of the ERM 2404 has a continuous centering collar on its inner circumference and a frictional connection. Besides the centering collar, the scale drum of the ERM 2405 has feather-key slots on its inner circumference to prevent unintentional rotation. The ERM 2480...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaWEBINARSPhotonics.com 7/20/2023Motorized and Calibrated Lenses for Machine Vision ApplicationsMany applications have benefited from motorized varifocal lenses that allow automatic or remote adjustment of focus distance and field of view.
