Metal Chemical Etching Optical Encoder Disc Service
| Xinhaisen provides metal chemical etching solutions for producing stainless steel encoder disc, delivering faster turnaround, greater design flexibility, and
more cost-efficient results compared to conventional perforation
methods. |
Nowadays, the optical encoders applicate in many industries, for
examples:
Industrial Automation – Position and speed feedback for motors, conveyors, and robotic
arms.
CNC Machines – Accurate control of cutting, milling, and drilling operations.
Robotics – Motion control and joint position tracking in robotic systems.
Elevators & Lifts – Monitoring and controlling platform position and movement speed.
Printing & Packaging Equipment – Precise registration and alignment during high-speed operations.
Aerospace & Defense – Navigation systems, turret positioning, and antenna tracking.
Medical Devices – Imaging systems, surgical robots, and automated lab equipment.
Renewable Energy – Yaw and pitch control in wind turbines.
Semiconductor Manufacturing – Positioning wafers and inspection stages with micron-level
accuracy.
Automotive – Steering angle sensing, throttle control, and automated driver
assistance systems (ADAS).

Want to custom metal optical encoder disc by metal chemical
etching?
| Photochemical machining is a high-precision subtractive process
that removes material from metal sheets through controlled chemical
reactions. By utilizing cost-efficient digital tooling and
producing all mesh openings in a single step, it enables the
fabrication of components with nearly limitless complexity,
structures, and geometries. This technique reduces both costs and
lead times while allowing rapid, hassle-free design modifications. |
Benifits of Etched Metal Filter Screens
 |  |  |  |
| Unlimited Complex | Smallest Opening to 0.02mm | Burr-Free & Stress-Free | Prototype to High Volume Production |
