Introducing new AMO multi-section linear encoder

SCHAUMBURG, IL (February 2018) — HEIDENHAIN is pleased to announce the addition of an exciting new product — the AMO LMF 9310 multi-section linear encoder — to its line of robust linear encoders. This TTL encoder is specifically designed for long length applications (over 10’) on manually operated machines and is compatible with HEIDENHAIN’s Acu-Rite Solutions brand of digital readouts. The AMO LMF 9310 is an excellent replacement for the retired Acu-Rite Solutions ENC 250 encoder. AMO is owned by HEIDENHAIN so the blend of the product lines exemplifies its commitment to its ongoing Customer First program to best meet customer needs. The LMF 9310 is an inductive encoder available with measuring lengths from 3,150 mm (124”) up to 18,270 mm (719”), in 180 mm (7”) increments. It comes standard with a 20µm accuracy grade, 1000µm grating pitch, and a 5µm measuring step. Encoder Features Contamination resistance — IP67 Insensitive to interfering magnetic fields High precision High resolution Speed up to 3 m/s Operating temperature -10°C to 80°C Distance coded reference pulse Scanning Head includes a flexible mounting coupling to assist in mounting About HEIDENHAIN Dr. Johannes HEIDENHAIN GmbH develops and supports motion control feedback solutions for the machine tool, semiconductor, electronics assembly and test, metrology, automation, medical, energy, biotechnology and other global markets. The North American subsidiary is HEIDENHAIN CORPORATION, headquartered in Schaumburg, IL, and San Jose, CA, and has been serving the U.S. industry for over 50 years.

Early success of long encoder solution by authorized distributors

Recently introduced to the North American market by Acu-Rite Solutions, long length linear encoder solutions from HEIDENHAIN-owned company AMO GmbH are experiencing early success through select authorized Acu-Rite Solutions distributors. The New LMF 9310 multi-section inductive linear encoder is available in measuring lengths from 3,150 mm (124”) up to 18,270 mm (719”), in 180 mm (7”) increments. It comes standard with a 20μm accuracy grade, 1000μm grating pitch, and a 5μm measuring step. It’s an excellent replacement of the ENC 250 encoder used for manual machine tool applications over 120”. For use in a variety of industries, this type of long length linear encoder is commonly found on large, manually operated metal forming machines such as large VTLs, horizontal planner mills, and large lathes, but may be well suited for use with virtually any long length manual measuring application. With an IP-67 contamination resistance rating, it will even work in the dirtiest environments. While this encoder is manufactured in Europe, it is in stock and ready to ship from HEIDENHAIN’s U.S. headquarters in Schaumburg, IL with a one- to two-week lead time (each tape is cut to order). The international sales organizations continue to evolve, and now authorized Acu-Rite Solutions dealers can take advantage of selling the LMF 9310 inductive linear encoders to their customers. The full line of AMO products is planned to be available for distribution in North American starting in 2018. For more information, see your area regional sales manager.
