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

• Lowest Z-Height Sensor    • Same Sensor, Tape or Glass, Linear and Rotary    • Reels of Laser Tape up to 50 Meters in Length    • Stick-on Optical Index and Limit Markers    • Broadest Alignment Tolerances    • SmartPrecision™ II Software    • Programmable Resolution, Output Frequency and Alarms With Mercury II, you get the smallest 1.2nm capable sensor. You get laser tape or glass, linear and rotary scales. You get adhesive-mount laser tape in continuous lengths on reels up to 50 meters, and the only stick-on optical index and limit markers. You get the widest alignment tolerances, plus instrument free setup. Finally, setup programmability, monitoring, and diagnostic capabilities are standard with SmartPrecision II Software.

Only Mercury II lets you use the same sensor with PurePrecision™ laser tape for convenience, or with linear and rotary glass scales for the highest accuracy. What’s more, our stick-on optical index achieves repeatability of 1 LSB at full speed. Index and limit markers will work with both laser tape and linear glass scales.

Mercury II offers the most advanced software in the industry. SmartPrecision II software enables programmable resolution, encoder setup, real time monitoring from a web browser, plus alarms and analysis using a variety of data plots.
