need new technologies to make their designs deliver higher performance
and added flexibility… And they need all this at a lower cost.
One area that greatly affects this is motion stage design. Encoder
selection is critical to performance. Click Here For the Full Story |

| SmartPrecision™,
The World’s first programmable encoder software, allows engineers
to reprogram encoder resolution and output bandwidth dynamically.
In addition, the software provides diagnostic tools and remote communication
via the Internet. Dynamic performance tuning Getting the best performance from a motion platform requires the right system resolution at the right motion speed. Click Here For The Full Story |

For years engineers have awaited the development of a high performance analog encoder with ultra low Z height. Available encoders were either too tall or too slow for many applications. Now the Mercury 1000 solves these problems. It is smaller, faster, and less expensive than any encoder in its class. The sensor is just 8.4 mm tall and it's compatible with both linear and rotary applications. It features sine/cosine output with a fundamental linear resolution of 20 microns; rotary resolution is 2500 to 16,384 CPR.

electronics can interpolate resolution up to x256; a digital index
window output is also standard. The M1000's accuracy is outstanding:
standard linear accuracy is ± 3 to ± 5 microns with
± 1 micron available. Rotary accuracy is up to ± 2.1
arc-seconds. According to Don Mitchell, founder and CTO, "The
M1000 opens up new possibilities by enabling smaller, lighter equipment
designs that deliver higher speed and greater throughput." Click Here For the Full Story |
