LIKgo

Customized to your needs

User-friendliness, a wide range of applications and high quality standards
are the objectives of the new LIK series.

The new LIK series stands for user friendliness, versatile deployability, and high quality

  • Highly compact and lightweight scanning head
  • 20 µm grating period and measuring steps down to 78.125 nm
  • New three-field scanning technology with improved signal quality
  • No phase and offset errors
  • Lower interpolation error
  • Very low power consumption and heat accumulation
  • Interpolated TTL signals from the scanning head without additional electronics
  • Electronic adjustment capability after mounting to reduce static mounting errors
  • Improved ADJUSTMENT TOOL connection
Save money

Reduced cost of production and lower encoder prices thanks to standardized components

Save time

Fast delivery thanks to in-stock encoder components and improved production

Precise positioning

High signal quality and stability thanks to a new sensor design and three separate scanning fields
