The Foundation of Accuracy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Designed as the perfect partner to our Optical Encoders, our linear glass scales provide the bedrock for high-performance feedback. Manufactured using high-grade optical glass with low thermal expansion coefficients, these scales ensure measurement stability even during temperature fluctuations. By utilizing robust chrome-on-glass deposition, we guarantee superior signal fidelity and long-term durability, giving best-in-class systems the reliable baseline it needs for sub-micron precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scalable High-Fidelity Feedback<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our glass scale architecture offers seamless integration for demanding metrology and automation applications. Available in a wide variety of lengths and accuracy classes, each scale is engineered to maximize the capabilities of PurePrecision\u2122 optics. The high-contrast optical grating enables our sensors to achieve exceptional resolution while maintaining generous alignment tolerances, significantly reducing installation time and complexity, without compromising the linearity required for critical motion control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
