E-Motion Newsletter - November 2021 Renishaw QUANTiC™ open incremental encoders
Company News - November 2021
E-Motion would like to introduce QUANTiC™ open incremental encoder system to our customers.
The QUANTiC encoder system
integrates
RENISHAW's filtering optics design and interpolation
technology to create a super-compact, robust, incremental open optical encoder.
QUANTiC encoders are easy to use with exceptionally wide installation and
operation tolerances, along with built-in calibration functions.
QUANTiC readheads offer
digital output and a new analogue output variant with a wide variety of
configurations and linear or rotary scale options. Speeds up to 24 m/s can be
achieved to meet the most demanding motion control requirements.
Detailed diagnostic information can be accessed by
using the
Advanced Diagnostic Tool ADTi‑100 and ADT View software during
installation or for in-field diagnostics and fault finding.

QUANTiC™ System Features
In-built reliability and ease
of installation
Robust position measurement
over contamination
Easy installation and setup
High speed performance: QUANTiC
can achieve speeds up to 24 m/s to meet the most demanding
motion control requirements.
Robust position measurement over
contamination
QUANTiC readheads ensure
excellent motion control performance in a wide range of applications by minimizing
positional error over scale contamination. A new detector design provides an
additional layer of signal filtering which helps to eliminate non-harmonic
signal frequencies, ensuring low Sub-Divisional Error (SDE) and minimal signal
variation over dirt or contamination on the scale.
Easy installation and set-up
The advanced optical design
and signal processing of the QUANTiC encoder provides increased installation
and operational tolerances while maintaining metrological performance. Low cost
of ownership is achieved through reduced installation and set-up times.
Scale options
Linear scales are used where
straight-line position information is needed - usually X, Y or Z axes.
Rotary scales are used for
angular position information and the motion control of rotating elements.
Partial arc scales are used
for measuring a partial arc of rotation by wrapping them around drums, shafts,
or arcs.
Optional Advanced Diagnostic Tool
ADTi-100
The QUANTiC encoder system is compatible with the Advanced Diagnostic Tool ADTi-100 and ADT View software. They
provide comprehensive real-time encoder data feedback to aid more challenging
installations and diagnostics. The intuitive software interface can be used
for:
Remote calibration
Signal optimisation over the entire axis length
Readhead pitch indication
Limit and reference mark indication
Readout of encoder position (relative to the scale)
Monitoring the velocity against time graph
