Agilent AEDL Series Optical Linear Incremental Encoder
www.DataSheet4U.com
Description The AEDL Series linear encoders use high technology transmissive optical encoding technique to detect linear motion. There is no mechanical contact between the scanning head and the linear scale, thus eliminating error due to frictions and alignment errors. Basically, the encoder consists of a precision linear glass scale and a scanning head, which translate the linear position into analog and digital electrical signals. The encoder can be easily aligned and installed using the provided spacer-clip and the selfadhesive mounting feature. Using Agilent’s Quick Stick™ method, the encoder profile can be easily adjusted while the system is aligned to the machine system.
