Rotary axes of machine tools come in many shapes and sizes. The spectrum ranges from small and very quickly rotating axes, as in grinding spindles for gear grinding, to very large rotary tables, as found in gantry-type lathes. All of these applications require angle encoders that are adapted to the machine model with respect to possible mounting conditions, accuracy requirements, the required rotational speed, and dynamic demands. With the angle encoders from AMO and HEIDENHAIN, users have the entire range of angle encoders at their disposal. Learn more
