Renishaw LM13 Series rotary encoder

The LM13 ring encoder features a compact,sealed read head and a magnetized ring. The actuator is a periodically magnetized ring with a pole length of 2 mm. Radial or axial reading of the ring is possible. The read head can ride on the surface of the ring up to 0.4 mm.,easy to install,the LM13 features a fully set LED read head and wide mounting tolerances. The encoders are available with analog or digital outputs and offer a range of customer-selectable interpolation factors. The LM13 can rotate at up to 20,000 rpm. Designed for extreme applications,the solid-state LM13 ring encoder has an operating range of -10°C to +80°C,is waterproof and sealed to IP68,and is highly resistant to shock,vibration and pressure. The strong magnetic rings are also resistant to a range of chemicals commonly found in industry. The non-contact,frictionless design eliminates wear while reducing hysteresis,providing precision at high speeds and under acceleration.,the LM13 encoder system provides reliable solutions for tough,tough applications inc woodworking,stone cutting,sawing,metal processing,textiles,packaging,plastic processing,automation and assembly systems,laser/flame/waterjet cutting,electronics Assembly equipment,etc.
