White paper: Mounting encoder scales for optimum thermal performance (pdf)
File size: 0.94 MB
Language: English
This white paper discusses the thermal performance of Renishaw's linear encoder scales. It includes options on how to calculate and compensate for thermally induced strains. It also explains how an expansion mismatch between the scale and the underlying machine substrate can impact on the overall performance of the encoder system. Guidance is given to customers about which scales to choose.
