Linear Encodeur Scale 180LPI - L5000 - W20

Linear Encoder Scale 180 LPI – L5000 – W20

The Linear Encoder Scale 180 LPI is an encoder scale used in linear positioning systems for industrial machinery, particularly in large-format printers and precision equipment.

It works with an optical sensor to accurately measure the position of the carriage or a movement axis. This measurement ensures extremely precise positioning during machine movements.

With a length of 5000 mm, this encoder scale can be trimmed to fit smaller printers or equipment.

Technical specifications

• Resolution: 180 LPI (Lines Per Inch)
• Length: 5000 mm
• Width: 20 mm
• Technology: Optical encoder tape
• Adaptation: Can be cut to size for smaller machines

Compatibility and use

• Industrial large-format printers
• CNC machines and automated systems

Function

• Precise measurement of the position of a linear axis
• Control of carriage or gantry positioning
• Synchronisation of machine movements
• Maintaining the precision of industrial operations

Possible symptoms of wear

• Positioning errors
• Print misalignment
