First select a product category. Here you can choose between linear encoders, angle encoders or length gauges.
Select the accuracy of the incremental length gauge that meets your requirements. You can choose between two accuracy classes, SPECTO for ±1 µm or METRO for ±0.5 µm.
The position detection can be incremental or absolute. The incremental measuring method provides a relative position as well as direction of movement, which requires an assignment to a reference point (starting point) at the beginning of the measurement. This is done by homing the axis. The absolute measuring method provides concrete position information at any axis position. A reference run at the beginning of the measurement is not necessary.
At this point you can select the type of bolt actuation. You can choose between two variants, spring-driven or pneumatic. With spring-driven length gauges, the built-in spring extends the measuring bolt into the measuring position and builds up the measuring force. The measuring bolt is extended in the rest position. On length gauges with pneumatic bolt actuation, the bolt extends when compressed air is applied. When the compressed air connection is vented, the built-in spring retracts the measuring bolt.

NUMERIK JENA encoders are tested and electronically adjusted under ideal mounting conditions prior to shipment. In addition, the sensor modules offer the option of electronic signal adjustment after installation in the application. The measuring system can thus be optimized with respect to the given mechanical environmental conditions (tolerances).
The ADJUSTMENT TOOL and associated EPIFLEX Pro software were developed to make signal adjustment as simple and effective as possible.

Measuring systems of the LIKselect series which are shipped without D-sub connecting elements require the LIKS1 adapter set for connection to the ADJUSTMENT TOOL. An analog version (for 1 Vpp) and a digital version (for TTL) are available to match the measuring system.

The NPA (Numerik PWT Adapter) is an accessory article for connecting linear incremental encoders of the latest NUMERIK JENA product generation to the PWT 101, an inspection device from Dr. JOHANNES HEIDENHAIN GmbH for function control as well as adjustment of encoders.
For encoders with pin layout according to the NUMERIK JENA standard, the NPA pin layout adapter must be used.
In combination with the NUMERIK JENA software module (available free of charge), the adapter makes it possible to use the range of functions of the PWT 101 also in conjunction with the LIKgo and LIKselect.
