What is Linear Scale?
A scale, also known as a scale displacement sensor (scale transducer), is a measurement and feedback device that works with the optical principle of a grating. Often used in closed-loop servo systems for CNC machine tools, optical scales can be used to detect linear or angular displacements. Linear scale is one of the types of scale, an optical sensor device used to measure linear displacement, the main principle of which is based on the interference and diffraction effects of light. It is widely used in industrial automation, CNC machine tools, precision measurement, etc. sisco shop will introduce the structure, basic principle, and application of linear scale in detail.
