Numerik Jena: Vacuum Linear Incremental Encoder (LIK XX VAC & KIT LX VAC)
Our exposed linear encoders consist of a scanning head and a scale tape. These measuring systems are basically characterized by the following main features:
The users slide system takes over the steering between the scanning head and the scale tape
Non-contact optical scanning of the scale tape by the scanning head, thereby no mechanical retroactive effect on the slide system
Low space requirement and uncomplicated assembly
High traversing speed up to 10 m/s
Signal interpolation up to 100 times integrated in the measuring head or the connector and high resolution up to 50 nm
Large mounting tolerances
Automatic signal adjustment after mounting possible
High scale accuracy up to Âą1 Âľm
High interpolation accuracy and low sensibility to contamination due to dynamic offset- and amplitude control
Reference signals with increment-precise repetitive accuracy independent to the reference marksâ approach
Defined thermal behaviour supported by our DOUBLEFLEX scale tapes
Typical fields of application:
Production and inspection machines for the semiconductor industry
Linear units and linear drives
Coordinate tables
Measuring machines and measuring microscopes
Robotics
Precision devices in reprography
Precise machining
Positioning and measuring devices in medical technology
Vacuum Encoder Features:
We offer you each of our linear measuring systems also in a modified vacuum version
Here we categorize vacuum applications up to 10-6 mBar (HV) and 10-9 mBar (UHV) of atmospheric pressure
Heating cycles of 12 h at 150 °C possible
LIK XX VAC Features:
The LIK Series was especially designed for applications with limited installation space. With its integrated 2-field EPIFLEX sensor module it is geared up for rougher applications also. The LIK 41 is the smallest variant of this series and was especially equipped with a 1-field sensor to minimize the size of the housing.

KIT LX VAC Features:
The Kit L Series was especially designed for applications with especially customized requirements. These systems are not only extremely small, they are also particularly configurable. Your ideas won't be hardly limited with this series.
Special vacuum version of the Kit L2 with EPIFLEX sensor module (2-field scanning)
Special vacuum version of the Kit L4 with EPIFLEX sensor module (1-field scanning)
Components are vacuum compatible up to 10 E-6 mbar (UHV) atmospheric pressure
Stainless Steel Scales:
The SINGLEFLEX-scale tape consists of a single stainless steel tape with an applied incremental track and one or more reference marks or a PRC code. The scale tape is equipped with a double-sided adhesive tape and can be mounted easily on the machine element.
Glass Scales:
For applications with special environmental conditions (e.g. magnetic fields, heat sources, vacuum, etc.) or for special demands on the dimensions we also offer scales made of glass.
