Position feedback without purge air

TRUE IMAGE TECHNOLOGY for sealed linear and angle encoders from HEIDENHAIN

Thanks to TRUE IMAGE TECHNOLOGY, the Series 6 LC linear encoders and Series 1 RCN angle encoders from HEIDENHAIN maintain a clear image of their scales, even in machine tools with condensation and other liquid contamination. A special light-guiding element eliminates optical distortions, allowing these encoders to reliably deliver high-accuracy position feedback, in many cases without purge air. The results are lower system costs and an up to 99% smaller carbon footprint.

HEIDENHAIN Dplus encoders

New potential in robotics, elevators and chipmaking

Our Dplus encoders share a remarkable capability: multi-dimensional motion feedback. In robotics, the inductive KCI 120 Dplus provides rotary position feedback both upstream and downstream from a robot joint’s gearing, thus raising TCP accuracy and simplifying cobot design. On elevator motors, the KCI 419 Dplus merges angular position feedback with continuous brake-stroke monitoring for greater operational reliability. And for chipmaking challenges, such as finer structures in hybrid bonding, the LIP 6000 Dplus drives up system accuracy by tracking secondary motion orthogonal to its primary linear axis.

The compact TNC7 basic

Bringing TNC7 benefits to smaller applications such as 3+2-axis machines

Within the new range of HEIDENHAIN TNC7 controls, the 16-inch TNC7 basic was designed to succeed the TNC 620 at the lower end of the size spectrum. But it still has the typical TNC7 benefits that make the new HEIDENHAIN controls so easy, reliable and efficient to operate, including 6D Model Aided Setup (MAS), Dynamic Collision Monitoring (DCM), OCM trochoidal milling and a Full HD monitor.

More accuracy for chip manufacturing

MULTI-DOF TECHNOLOGY: exact hybrid bonding

Semiconductor and electronics manufacturing require extreme accuracy. Achieving it is possible with MULTI-DOF TECHNOLOGY and TRANSFERABLE ACCURACY. Encoders equipped with this HEIDENHAIN know-how allow you to detect and compensate for inaccuracy in up to six degrees of freedom. Dramatically improve your accuracy with the LIP 6000 Dplus linear encoder, the GAP 1000 gap encoder and MRP 8081 Dplus angle encoder module.

The VT 122 measuring camera

Holistic tool inspection from the convenience of your screen

The HEIDENHAIN VT 122 measuring camera and VTC software are a single intelligent system with the threefold functionality of a tool presetter, tool microscope and visual inspection aid. Take accurate images of the tool’s edge while it is inside the machine envelope. Automatically measure tool length and diameter. Then visually inspect the tool and measure its wear on the screen of your control or PC. The benefits are time savings, higher machining accuracy, reduced scrap and less rework.
