HEIDENHAIN introduces ILC 3019 encoder for harsh automation axes
HEIDENHAIN introduced the compact inductive ILC 3019 linear encoder for contaminated and magnetic automation environments.
Evidence notes
- Inductive scanning provides reliable linear feedback despite strong contamination or magnetic fields.
- The compact scanning head, wide mounting tolerances and EnDat interface simplify integration.
- Target applications include robot axes, linear motors, conveyors and automated workpiece handling.
