TONiC DOP allows the assembly of relevant systems to be significantly less complex, yet boosts performance thanks to high-speed interpolation with advanced CORDIC algorithms. When combined with the TONiC encoder’s low-noise optical scheme and dynamic signal processing, the system provides higher speed, reduced jitter, improved repeatability and enhanced velocity control.
The total encoder system comprises a TONiC readhead, a DOP interface which includes the interpolation electronics to match the fit and form of Renishaw’s SiGNUM Si interface, and a variety of high-performance linear and rotary scales to suit a wide range of applications.
TONiC incremental linear encoders are compatible with a range of scale options, including gold tape scale with integral optical reference marks, Invar spars with “zero” thermal expansion and ±1 µm accuracy on lengths up to 1130 mm, and robust stainless steel spars for very high accuracy on long axes. The latest addition to the range is the new FASTRACK RTLC linear encoder scale system, designed for ruggedness, easy installation and rapid scale replacement, combined with ±5 µm/m accuracy.
Rotary/angle encoder options are also well served, with RESM rings available in a range of standard diameters from 52 mm to 550 mm, with even larger sizes available as special order items. Furthermore, ultra-high accuracy REXM rings have a total installed accuracy better than ±1 arc second on ring diameters greater than 100 mm, when used with dual readheads.
As with all Renishaw encoders, TONiC incremental encoders are backed by a truly responsive global sales and support network. Furthermore the product satisfies the highest environmental standards, with both WEEE and RoHS compliance.
