1000007719 - Sheet, Linear Scale BN-20 (encoder strip)

Linear encoder strip – Roland BN-20 – 1000007719

The Roland 1000007719 linear encoder strip (Sheet, Linear Scale BN-20) is the optical scale mounted along the carriage rail of the VersaSTUDIO BN-20. The encoder sensor continuously reads it to determine the exact position of the print heads.

Its graduations at 180 lines per inch (180 LPI) provide the controller with a position reference at every pass. This precision ensures accurate drop placement and contour cutting aligned with the print.

Supplied as a single unit, in its original dimensions of 762 × 13 mm, including mounting holes. Its specific width of 13 mm requires an original Roland part: this item is available as New or Refurbished.
