Overview
RLM is a component-level encoder system consisting of a RLM readhead and a magnetic scale or ring. It is designed as a position control loop element for embedded motion control applications. The encoder also has a self-diagnostic function for error detection.
Features
- Miniature design
- Unique or periodic bidirectional reference mark
- Incremental ABZ TTL or RS422, BiSS C or SSI output
- Suitable for use with linear scales, radial and axial rings
Benefits
- High system accuracy up to ±10 μm
- High-speed operation
- Non-contact and wear-free measuring principle
- Pin or flexible cable option
