Metal Etching 500cpr 1000cpr Rotary 0.05mm to 0.4mm Optical Encoder
Discs
An etched encoder disc is a critical component in motion control
systems, providing precise position and speed feedback for a wide
range of applications.
Xinhaisen manufacturers encoder discs using advanced etching
techniques to create highly accurate patterns that enable encoders
to measure rotational movement with exceptional precision.Whether
in robotics, industrial automation, or medical devices, etched
encoder disc play a vital role in ensuring smooth and reliable
operation.
Specifications of Metal Etching Optical Encoder Discs
Using photo chemical etching machining technique, Xinhaisen
manufactures custom metallic encoder discs with customer’s
drawings. So that we can fabricate metal encoder discs with a wide
variety of precise patterns, such as, capacitive encoder disc,
optical encoder disc, reflective encoder disc, and magnetic encoder
disc etc.
