MicroE Systems revolutionized encoder technology with the original Mercury encoder
family. Smaller, faster, and smarter than anything before, it set the standard for innovation.
Now Mercury II takes another giant step forward by giving you “best-in-class”
performance, unparalleled versatility with tape and glass scales, superior robustness, and
unmatched ease of use. And you get all of this from a single system, without making
trade offs.

Performance Without Compromise

Versatility Without Compromise

Robustness Without Compromise

Unsurpassed Ease-of-Use


Performance Without Compromise

   • The Highest Resolution
   • The Highest Accuracy
   • The Highest Speed
 

Mercury II’s best-in-class performance is the result of its next generation optical design and SmartPrecision™ II electronics. This combination enables “best-in-class” speed, “best-in-class” resolution and “best-in-class” accuracy, all from a single encoder family.



The Highest Resolution

The Mercury II has user selectable resolutions from 5µm to 1.2 nm, or 20k CPR to 268M CPR, rotary.
Users can set the interpolation level in integer steps for precise control.



The Highest Accuracy

Mercury II gives you the high level of short-travel accuracy previously expected only from of fine pitch glass systems.



The Highest Speed

Mercury II operates at speeds over two times faster than competitive encoders with A-quad-B output. For example, maximum speed at 0.1µm resolution is 4m/s. The closest competitor is 1.5m/s.

Mercury II is over two times faster than competitive
high-performance encoder systems.
