- Encoder RESOLUTE with high-precision RSLA scale in stainless steel
RSLA scale in the form of a ruler provides the characteristics inherent in encoder systems with a smaller pitch, while still retaining all the advantages of the RESOLUTE encoder. The linear encoder system with the RSLA line gives a total error of less than ± 4 μm at 5 m - the best result in the industry! (It is possible to solve the problems of position control for lengths up to 5 m - on request). The system includes a RESOLUTE readout head and a stainless steel RSLA line in which only one track is used, the absolute scale at which absolute position and phase data are combined in a single code. In combination with the encoder characteristics such as low SDE and low jitter, the latest optical design, resolution up to 1 nm and ease of installation, the RSLA line is ideal for solving problems for long lengths that require high storage accuracy of measurements.
Made from stainless steel of special composition, the RSLA line has a coefficient of thermal expansion equal to 10.8 μm/m/°C and is distinguished by high corrosion resistance. The RSLA line has the same precision as a high-precision glass ruler, but it´s more convenient to use: it can be folded for storage in a ring, but in a straightened state it behaves exactly like a rigid ruler. This sturdy ruler has a much smaller cross-section than conventional glass rulers. At the same time with such rulers it is easier to handle during transportation and installation, without risking to break them.
