Angle Encoders
HEIDENHAIN angle encoders enable high-accuracy angular measurement down to a few arc seconds. Various design options offer the optimal solution for any application: sealed versions for high robustness, modular solutions for maximum flexibility in the application, and angle encoder modules with an integrated precision bearing. As a result, process reliability and positioning accuracy are always perfectly matched to the given scenario.

Linear Encoders
Linear encoders measure the position of linear axes without intervening mechanical elements. This eliminates a series of potential error sources such as backlash, pitch error, or heating of the recirculating ball screw. Wherever rigorous position accuracy and high machining speeds are needed, linear encoders are essential.
