Renishaw's optical linear encoders provide zero mechanical hysteresis and excellent metrology. The patented filtering optics withstand a variety of contaminants such as dirt, dust and scratches ensuring customers' machines fitted with Renishaw's linear encoders run reliably with little or no maintenance.

All linear encoder optical readhead and interface combinations feature a integral set-up LED which speeds installation and removes the need for complex set-up equipment or oscilloscopes. Scale is available in many lengths with self-adhesive backing, removing the need for drilling and tapping, saving time and money.
