The Resolute optical encoder system is billed as the world’s first true absolute encoder capable of 27‑bit resolution at 36,000rpm.
The fine-pitch system is designed to offer excellent dirt immunity,
while delivering market-leading resolution of just 1 nanometer at up to
100m/s, for both linear and angle encoding applications. Using a
single-track optical scale, Resolute acquires absolute position
immediately upon switch-on—without battery back-up—simplifying machine
design by eliminating the need for reference returns. The system’s
ruggedness, ultra-high speed capability and resolution suit it well for
high-performance lathes, as well as slower-moving axes requiring the
highest levels of precision and motion control integrity. Renishaw Inc.www.renishaw.com847.286.9953
